One can majorly differentiate them by their sizes and shapes. The usual candles are majorly used for the purpose of illumination and are hence thick and big, whereas birthday candles are small and thin so that they do not spoil the cake. They also come in customized forms such as numbers to represent the age of the person cutting the cake and in letters to write something on the cake. For suck customised candles, they are sometimes bigger than what shall be placed on the cake, a needle is attached to them so that they are easily fixed on the cake.
In many cultures and regions, the person who has to cut the cake is invited and asked to make a wish before blowing the candles, and when they make a wish and then blow them off, wishing for it to come true. In a research conducted by Clemson University, in 2017, it was found that by blowing candles over the cake leave a lot of bacteria over it.
