Culpitt Select Striped Birthday Candles bring a ready-made mix of colour straight to your celebration cake. Supplied in a pack of 100, these 60mm straight cake candles are finished in red, blue, green and yellow, each with a classic white candy stripe, so you always have a festive combination of colours on hand without needing to buy several packs.
Each candle measures 60mm (6cm) in length and stands straight in the cake for a neat, traditional look. The candy stripe design works well for birthday cakes, cupcakes and celebration bakes for children and adults alike, adding a cheerful, colourful touch without any extra decorating work.
The candles are packed neatly into a small, white box, keeping them tidy and protected in the kitchen cupboard until needed. With 100 candles in every pack, it's a practical, cost-effective way for regular cake makers, bakers and small cake businesses to keep a ready supply on hand for birthdays and celebrations throughout the year, rather than buying a new pack for every cake.
We recommend using plastic candle holders (sold separately) to insert the candles into the cake, which helps keep the candles upright and makes them easier to remove afterwards. All candles should be removed from the cake before serving, and the safety instructions supplied with the item should always be followed. Culpitt Select is a wider range of cake decorating essentials, including cake boards, cake boxes, sugar paste, baking cases and piping bags, giving home bakers and cake decorators the foundations for every bake.
