History of birthday candles

It’s already familiar to people who eat cakes and blow candles on their birthdays. This custom is said to have originated in Greece. In ancient Greece, people believed in the moon goddess Artemis. At her annual birthday celebration, people always put honey cakes and a lot of lit candles on the altar to form a sacred atmosphere to show their special reverence for the moon goddess. Later, as time went by, because of the love of children, the ancient Greeks always liked to put cakes and other things on the table when they celebrated their children’s birthdays. On the top, they put a lot of light candles on them. And add a new activity - blow out these bright candles. They believe that the lit candle has a mysterious power. If the child who made the birthday makes a wish in the heart and then blows out all the candles in one breath, then the good wishes of the child will be realized. So the candle was turned into a small program with auspicious meaning on the birthday party. Later, it gradually developed into an interesting activity such as blowing candles at birthday parties or banquets for children, adults and even the elderly.
