Anniversary House Colourful Blue Glitter Candle, Number 5, 5th Birthday Cake Topper, 7 Centimeters, AHC30/5

Arrived visibly broken within the package with gold glitter all fallen off the top. Arrived via Royal Mail in a very flimsy plastic wallet. Would suggest this type of item requires at minimum a padded Jiffy bag. Suggests corners being cut to reduce mail costs. Went straight in the bin as it’s unusable.

Bought for a Golden Anniversary cake.The candles have not been used yet so I do not know how they will burn. I have given these candles 3* because they are slightly smaller and thinner than I believed they would be, also the glitter goes everywhere (& I do mean everywhere) I have put them straight back in the packaging for now until they are ready to be used.On first opening the outer delivery packaging I was a little disappointed when I saw the candles. I expected a bit of an "Oh Wow" moment but instead I felt "crikey! That's a bit of a let down for the price I paid"At the end of the day they are just cake candles, and although I have not lit them yet, I am pretty sure the will do what candles are meant to do.....burn. However they are nothing really special! When you buy such a huge important sparkly number it's obvious they are for either a 50th Birthday or Anniversary so I think they are a bit of a let down for the price (I paid £3.50).

Wished I read other reviews. Just arrived and lots of the covering has come off. I choose this because of the covering as I thought it was pretty. I don’t hold out much hope when I actually get it out of the packaging. Will have to use now as I won’t get another one in time. Candles are meant to be part of a celebration. I’ll be hiding this behind other decorations on the cake. So disappointed. If the covering cannot survive the delivery, maybe stop offering this particular product.

Absolutely would not recommend this product. It may only be cheap but that does not excuse how the item looked when delivered to my door. The numbers were wonky and the glitter had completely come off one of the corners of the numbers, making me unable to use it for the purpose which is was intended, my Mum’s stories birthday party. I don’t normally like leaving bad reviews but people should steer clear. Defiantly not worth the hassle, time or money

Bought this for my Mum's 50th. Was very pretty to look and and the wick was easy to light. I did accidentally drop it before putting it on the cake so it did break at the bottom part of the 5 - this was my fault, although it did show that the wax was quite brittle. It was easy to fix however - just melt a little bit of the wax and hold together until it dries - looks good as new! Happy with the outcome and fast delivery.

Brought this number two birthday candle in advance for my baby's birthday, but I haven't use it yet. It does look very thin candle material, which is not as strong as other seller's birthday candle thickness. Other reviews had mentioned that it breaks easily when removing from the package, which I haven't done yet, nor can comment further if this is true or not. Will update more information after baby's birthday.

What a waste of money. Slightest touch and the glitter falls off in chunks. Don't waste your money. Spoiled a good Day by making the cake look awful.

My daughters first birthday is so important. so a number one candle is important as When we take out pictures they willLast forever.The product is not the same as the one in the picture.1.wrong colour- was not yellow gold but rose so not as same colour in product picture. So doesn’t match our other table decor.2.paint all chipped on the sides.I’m not a happy customer but and there’s not enough time.I don’t see how amazon can continue to allow these seller to sell when most people have the same problem as me.
