Trick candle
(Redirected from )
A trick candle is a novelty candle capable of relighting itself. By igniting magnesium inserted into the wick of the candle, the paraffin vapor given off when a candle is blown out can be set alight, allowing the candle reignite itself.[1]
Trick candles were banned in Canada in 1977.[2][3]
