    Thanks a mill everyone.
    Those little number decorations from tesco, do you just literally stick them into the middle of the cake?
    Sorry if thats a daft question!
    Thanks

    You do.
    They're not edible or anything, they're kind of waxy so you just stick them in the cake, there's a spiky base and you light them. They just melt down like any candle.
    You'll get them in any good stationery shop.

    Thanks a mill again! So they won't cause the cake to crumble when you stick them on top of the cake?
    In my case, I have bought my cake from a bakery & just want everything to be perfect. Haha.

    It's just like using regular candles. You'll be fine :)

    tesco do sparklers for cakes

    I don't like blowing out candles on cakes in regular years, but certainly not this year! I saw some video on twitter of a guy with a fan blowing them out.

    €2 shops can have stuff like this

    I was just going to say the same about blowing out candles :) It's not Covid friendly these days! I stick them on the board or better still in a cupcake just for the blowing out bit.

    Those sparkler candles send little black bits of something burnt flying all over the cake, don't like them for that reason.
