Overview
Cake with Blue Candle is one of the 17 variants of Cake with Candle: same recipe, same hardness, same drops — only the look differs. The full write-up for the set is on the Cake with Candle page.
In Minecraft 1.21.4, Cake with Blue Candle is a building block. It is available only in Creative mode or through commands. With a hardness of 0.5 it gives way immediately under almost any tool.
Any tool works, and so do bare hands. What you actually collect is Blue Candle. A blast resistance of 0.5 means a single creeper will clear it away.
It is not used in any crafting recipe.
