Hello World! A celebration is never complete without ordering the perfect birthday cake. The history of serving birthday cakes dates back to the time of the Ancient Romans when celebrating a birthday party with cakes was considered to be pretty logical. But not many know about the theories and myths of birthday candles. If you dig deeper into the history of the birthday candle, you will find that the secrets are hidden in Ancient Greece.
As per the popular tradition it was believed that people offered cakes which were brilliantly lit with candles to the temple of Artemis (Goddess of the Hunt). The Greeks used to make sure that the brightly illuminated candles look like the moon since the moon was associated with Artemis. It was believed that the smoke which used to appear when the candles were blown out carried prayers to the heavens. And it is because of this that people often believe that one should make a wish before blowing out the candles.
Another important belief that is popularly held behind blowing out candles comes from Germany. The Germans were considered to be hard core experts in designing candles. The story dates back to the year 1700 when the Germans celebrated Kinder fest. As per the age old custom, it was believed that placing a lit candle on the birthday cake was known to symbolize the“Light of Life.”
Next time you have a birthday celebration around the corner, you know for sure that you have to ask your dear ones to blow the candles out in a single puff so that all their wishes are taken to heaven for God to answer.
