Patissland tips to succeed in your composition
Tip 1: plan the right number according to repeated digits
For a number like 22 years or 88 years, you need to order 2 candles of the same digit. For 100 years, you need 1 "1" candle and 2 "0" candles. The calculator above gives you the exact details to order based on the number you want to display.
Tip 2: alignment and spacing on the cake
For a balanced visual effect, space the candles 1 to 2 cm apart between each digit and align them in a horizontal line at the center of the cake. If you write the age in two tiers (for example 12 / 2026 for a full date), keep the same spacing between the digits on each line.
Tip 3: lighting timing for the souvenir photo
The candles burn for about 10 to 15 minutes once lit. Light them just before the cake arrives in the room to have the maximum time for souvenir photos, singing, and the final blowout. Avoid lighting them too early in the kitchen.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to order to display a multi-digit number?
Each candle is sold individually with a unique number. To display 30 years, for example, you need to order a "3" candle and a "0" candle. For 22 years, you need to order two "2" candles. The calculator at the top of the page gives you the exact details based on your number.
What is the burning time of a candle?
Allow about 10 to 15 minutes of burn time per candle once lit. This duration is more than enough for the cake arrival, singing, and blowing out, provided they are not lit too early.
Does the candle hold well when inserted into fondant or cream?
Yes, the base of the candle is designed to be inserted directly into the top layer of the cake (cream, whipped ganache, fondant, mousse). For a very dense or iced cake, make a small pre-hole with a toothpick before inserting the candle.
Is this candle also suitable for a child's birthday?
The gold finish of this candle is more suited for adult birthdays and formal celebrations. For children's birthdays, multicolored or themed candles are generally more appropriate and better reflect the expected festive spirit.
Is the gold color visible well in photos?
Yes, the gold finish reflects the light from the lit candles well, creating a golden effect in photos. For the best result, photograph the cake with dim lighting and the candles lit: the contrast with the flame enhances the visual effect.
Difference with sparkling magic candles?
Magic candles produce sparkling sparks and burn faster, creating a fireworks effect. PartyDeco number candles offer a classic flame and longer burn time, ideal for enjoying the moment without rushing. Both types can be combined depending on the desired effect.
