Soulfire Candles

Soulfire Candles should definitely be a thing and all they would need is soul sand or soul soil in the recipe.

    The candles would have the same properties of soul fire (Ex. scaring off piglins). Features for soul fire is another topic.

    It would be better to call them soul candles, to make the name consistent with soul torches.

    The crafting ratio should be 8 candles : 1 soul sand/soil à la terracotta and stained glass.

    But we need uses. Maybe, it can encourage sculk growth so you can start making sculk farms.

    every fire-based light source should have a soul variant, for the sake of consistency. We already got soul fire, soul torches, soul lanterns and soul campfires, of all things. Adding soul candles and soul jack-o-lanterns is only logical. This is what we should expect of Mojang.

    What we definitely shouldn't expect (but what they should totally do) is for them to go the extra mile and turn soul sand into an actual fuel (like it already is in the soul campfire), that causes furnaces, blast furnaces and smokers to light up blue. 

    Actually, I should make a new post for this...

    As a builder who made the weirdest most excited sound when I realized candles were in the game, (as I had read the suggestion a while ago, and wanted them in the game so flipping much). This would be awesome!! For nether themed decoration, to match soul lanterns (which I use a lot), and just add a slight touch to the room. If this came out I would probably use them in almost every build where the aesthetic could possibly match.

    This post needs a bit more info such as its uses but I think this is a generally good idea!

    I think if Mojang attempt to add them (that's not gonna be happen cause it too late for it) they would like to call them soul candles, like they did with the soul campfires!!

    This would be my favorite. Well only if you add MINECRAFT smoke to candles!
