Overview
White Candle is one of the 17 variants of Candle: same recipe, same hardness, same drops — only the look differs. The full write-up for the set is on the Candle page.
Minecraft classifies White Candle as a coloured block. White Candle is made at a crafting table. A hardness of 0.1 means it is one of the quicker blocks to clear.
No specific tool is required to collect it. Broken correctly, it drops itself. Because it is transparent it does not block light.
A blast resistance of 0.1 means a single creeper will clear it away. It stacks to 64. You make it with Candle and White Dye.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
