@linguistgoneforeign I was thinking flameless LED candles, but a quick search doesn’t reveal any that are birthday cake sized, mostly tapers and votives and tea lights.
That said, I once lit a cake with 100 candles. It got so hot that the sugar icing lit on fire. Tilting sets of candles to light them in a vertical stack did help do it quickly. Barbecue lighters too. We did have a second cake for actual edible purposes, as it was irredeemably covered in wax and burnt sugar.
@linguistgoneforeign haha yeah. I did see some Halloween ones that I admit were pretty cool — they had the led candles “floating” from fishing line invisibly. Hard to do with flames that way.
@linguistgoneforeign I found the photo. As you can see, some of the earlier candles already melted completely into wax. Also… I’m not sure, but it may have also been an ice cream cake. Bad ideas all around.
