To bake a candle cake in Minecraft, you will first need to bake a cake. You can do this by gathering three buckets of milk, two sugars, one egg, and three pieces of wheat. Once you have gathered all the materials, place them accordingly in a crafting table as shown below.
That said, you can get two buckets of milk by right-clicking cows or goats in the game. After that, you can get sugar from sugar canes or honey jars – we recommend the route sugar cane because it is easier, because you can find them near the beaches.
Once you get the sugar you will need to get a chicken egg and then wheat, which is often found in villages and can be grown by planting seeds.

Now, to craft Candles, you will need Honeycombs, which are obtained from Hives located in biomes such as the Plains, Sunflower Plains, and Flower Forest biomes.
After the bee nests, you'll then need string, which you can get by killing spiders and destroying cobwebs – if you go the spider route, be sure to bring a weapon with a loot enchantment, as this will increase the drop rate.
That being said, once you get the honeycombs and string, place them according to the pattern shown below and you will make a candle.
When you've prepared the candles and the cake, start by placing the cake on the floor by right-clicking it while it's on your hotbar, then do the same with the candle on the cake.
This will then make a candle cake, the perfect cake for any celebration – don't forget to light the candle with a flint and steel, though.
