What You'll Learn
Candles added to Minecraft Bedrock Edition Beta 1.17.10.22
Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Beta 1.17.10.22 has added candles to the 'Caves and Cliffs Update' Part One. This update brings a host of new features and enhancements to Minecraft, with candles being one of the most anticipated additions.
Candles in Minecraft are a new decoration item and light source that comes in 16 different colours. They can be crafted by placing 1 string and 1 honeycomb in a 3x3 crafting grid in the specific pattern shown in the game. Once crafted, they need to be moved to the player's inventory. Candles are not lit when placed and must be ignited using flint and steel, fire charge, or any flaming projectile. They can also be lit by a burning mob/player, a Fire Aspect book, or any sword enchanted with Fire Aspect. Up to four candles of the same colour can be placed in one block space, increasing the emitted light.
Lit candles can be extinguished using water (including a water bottle in the Java Edition), wind charges, or by the player interacting with the candle. Candles can be waterlogged, but waterlogged candles cannot be lit. A unique feature is that a single candle can be placed on an uneaten cake, creating a candle cake. If the candle cake is eaten or destroyed, the candle is dropped.
The addition of candles to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Beta 1.17.10.22 enhances the game's ambiance and provides players with creative lighting and decorative options.

Candles are a new light source
Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Beta 1.17.10.22 has added candles to the game in the Caves and Cliffs Update Part One. Minecraft: Bedrock Edition narrowly missed out on candles with the initial 1.17 update release, but Mojang Studios has confirmed that candles are arriving soon after the launch of 1.17.
Up to four candles of the same colour can be placed in one block space, increasing the emitted light. Dyed candles come in all sixteen colours, but once dyed, they cannot be changed to a different colour. Candles can also be mined without tools.
In the Bedrock Edition, a burning mob or player, a Fire Aspect book, or any sword enchanted with Fire Aspect can also be used to light candles.

Candles can be crafted with string and honeycomb
Minecraft's 1.17 'Caves and Cliffs Update' Part One added candles to the game, which can be crafted with string and honeycomb. The update was released in June 2021, and the candles were added to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition in Beta 1.17.10.22.
Candles are a new light source that can be crafted using string and honeycomb. They serve as an alternative source of light and can be used to decorate uneaten cakes. Each candle requires one piece of string to craft, which can be obtained by killing spiders, striders, and cats, breaking cobwebs, or finding them in chests in dungeons, temples, pillager outposts, mansions, and bastions. Honeycomb can be obtained by waiting for bees to fill their nest with honey and then using shears on the nest, which will yield three honeycombs.
To craft a candle, open a crafting table or your inventory and place the honeycomb and string in the crafting grid, with the string directly above the honeycomb. Candles can be dyed various colours using flowers, cocoa beans, lapis lazuli, bonemeal, beetroot, and ink sacs, or by smelting cacti or sea pickles. They can also be lit using flint and steel, fire charge, or any flaming projectile.
Candles can be used for a variety of decorative purposes, such as creating a spooky haunted house aesthetic or providing a lower light level than torches. They can also be placed on cakes to create birthday cakes.

Candles can be lit using flint and steel
Candles have been added to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Beta 1.17.10.22, alongside a host of other bug fixes and changes. Mojang Studios has confirmed that candles will be available to players in the near future, shortly after the launch of 1.17.
Candles are a great new light source in Minecraft, and they can be lit using flint and steel. They can also be lit with a fire charge or any flaming projectile. In the Bedrock Edition, a mob/player that is burning, a Fire Aspect book, or any sword enchanted with Fire Aspect can be used to light candles.
Candles can be crafted with one string and one honeycomb placed in a 3x3 crafting grid in the specific pattern shown in the crafting menu. Once crafted, they need to be moved to the player's inventory. Candles can be dyed various colours on a crafting grid, and up to four of the same colour can be placed in one block space, increasing the emitted light level.
It's important to note that candles are not lit when they are placed and must be lit manually. Waterlogged candles cannot be lit, but lit candles can be extinguished using water or by the player interacting with the candle.

Candles can be dyed different colours
Candles were added to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition in Beta 1.17.10.22, which was released in June 2021. This update added candles to the 'Caves and Cliffs Update' Part One, bringing the feature to Bedrock Edition players for the first time.
Candles in Minecraft can be dyed different colours using dyes. Dyes are a set of sixteen items used to change the colour of various items in the game, including candles. To dye a candle, players need to place an undyed candle and any colour dye in a crafting grid. This will result in a candle of the chosen colour.
There are multiple ways to obtain dyes in Minecraft. Dyes can be crafted from flowers and other items, found in loot, or bought from wandering traders. In the Bedrock Edition, wandering traders can sell three dyes for an emerald, or players can purchase three lapis lazuli, bone meal, cocoa beans, or ink sacs for one emerald. Apprentice-level cleric villagers also sell one lapis lazuli per emerald. Ink sacs can be crafted using one iron, one sulphur, and four oxygen in the compound creator, which is exclusive to the Bedrock Edition and Minecraft Education.
Additionally, certain items in Minecraft can be used as substitutes for specific dyes. In the Bedrock Edition, bone meal can be used as a substitute for white dye, ink sacs for black dye, lapis lazuli for blue dye, and cocoa beans for brown dye. These substitutions can be used in crafting recipes and for dyeing items, but it is important to note that only a single type of dye substitute can be used in a recipe, and they cannot be mixed.
