Standard Size Cupcake Candles Cupcakes average 5 oz each Each cupcake is scented to match how it is decorated Candles are handmade so colors can vary These are pillar candles so they should always be burned on a plate because they can drip. The top of the candle will burn faster than a normal candle due to being mixed with air to create the frosting look. Sometimes the candle will burn out once it burns through the top to the base. The wick is all the way through the base, so you can scrape off the top and relight the wick. Total burn time is an average of 10 hours. It can vary if it is burning in a room with a draft. I suggest setting up a cupcake stand so customers can smell the candles and choose which they want. In my retail store, I give the option to build a 4 pack of cupcakes or purchase a single candle. Containers are sold separately
