It's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years. So forget about defacing your birthday cake with loads of piddly little candles. Get yourself a Big Birthday Candle and add a suitably grandiose touch to the festivities.

The Big Birthday Candle is, as its name suggests, big. In fact at 12" tall it's freakin' enormous. Well it is when you compare it to the fragile little stumps that masquerade as regular birthday candles. Beautifully presented in an elegant embossed box, this wax wonder is a great present for anyone who wants to a big birthday.

Guaranteed to impress, the Big Birthday Candle is ideal for people who hate all that energy-sapping blowing out business. After all, blowing out countless candles is far too much like hard work, especially when you need to conserve your energy to scoff down all that yummy cake. What's more, on the off-chance you happen to be either one or one-hundred years old, a single statement candle is highly appropriate.

The Big Birthday Candle comes complete with an ornate wax spike, so you won't have to vandalize your cakey with a huge unsightly hole. And with its eye-catching striped design, fellow revellers won't forget your birthday in a hurry. You even get a small glass stand in case you haven't got a cake to put it in.

If you're still not convinced by the single candle concept you could always buy a stack of Big Birthday Candles equal to your recipients' age. But that kind of defeats the point. And unless the birthday boy/girl in question is under four-years-old, you'd have to buy a truly humungous cake.

So there you have it. It's a candle, it's for birthdays and it's big. There's not much more to say apart from happy birthday to yooouuuu. And so say all of us!
