Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an edible candle that can eliminate the inconvenience of removing the candle and minimize the discarded portion by allowing the food to be edible together with food without removing even if the candle flows into the food. .

Accordingly, the present invention provides a edible candle, characterized in that the combustion material constituting the candle and the wick inserted into the combustion material is made of an edible material, and an outer skin made of edible material is coated on the outside of the combustion material.

Description

Edible Candles {Candle}

The present invention relates to candles. More particularly, the present invention relates to an edible candle prepared by using an edible material and then used to eat a cake.

In general, candles known in the prior art as a combustion material is embedded in the inside of the candle body made of paraffin wax so that the wick is burned by burning the wick by dissolving the paraffin wax.

The candle as described above has a structure in which the inside and the outside are integrally filled with paraffin wax and play a role of a wick in the center of the cured candle body in the longitudinal direction of the ancho. Paraffin wax is dissolved as it is absorbed through the wick will continue to burn with the wick.

Here, paraffin, which is a material used in conventional candles, is manufactured by distilling petroleum, cooling and solidifying a stream of heavy oil and compressing it by compression filtration, which is not suitable for human use.

In addition, the candle is usually manufactured in the form of a rod, when the wick is lit, there is a disadvantage that the super appearance made of paraffin wax flows to the edge of the candle while melting, polluting the surroundings.

By the way, the properties of the candle as described above is not a problem when used to clarify the complaint, but in the case of using the candle for the decoration of food in addition to the purpose of lighting, for example, if it is inserted on the cake and flows from the candle When the falling paraffin wax candle is dropped onto the cake, there is a visible discomfort and there is an inconvenience of having to remove it before eating the cake.

And most of the decorative candles used in food are not reused and are thrown away as a waste of resources, and environmental pollution by abandoned candles has been a problem.

Therefore, in addition to decoration, even if the candle flows into the food, it is difficult to develop a candle that can be eaten like food without removing it.

Therefore, the present invention is devised to meet the requirements as described above, eliminating the inconvenience of removing the candle and discarded by eliminating the inconvenience of removing the candle by eliminating it even when the candle flows into the food, without decoration. The goal is to provide edible candles that can be minimized.

In order to achieve the object as described above, the present invention is characterized in that the combustion material forming the candle and the wick is inserted into the combustion material made of an edible material.

In addition, the present invention is characterized in that the outer shell made of an edible material is coated on the outside of the combustion material.

The combustor is made edible by using vegetable oils such as margarine, which have made unsaturated hydrocarbon edible vegetable oils into saturated hydrocarbons.

At this time, as the combustion material, oil extracted from cacao or palm fruit can be used.

The wick consists of dried stems of edible plants, and the skin may be a material such as sugar or chocolate.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a cross-sectional view showing an edible candle according to the present invention.

According to the drawings, the present invention is an outer shell (coated with a burning material 10) and a wick (20) which is inserted along the central portion of the combustion material (10) in the longitudinal direction of the combustion material (10). 30).

Combustion material 10 is edible oil is used and the wick 20 is a stem of the dried edible plant is used. The oil may be in solid or gel form.

When the fire on the wick 20 protruding to the upper part of the candle is lit up by burning the oil sucked into the wick 20, at which time the edible oil is easily melted by heat to prevent the shape of the candle to collapse. The sugar component is coated as the combustion material 10 shell 30.

The shell 30 is made of sugar or chocolate for firmness and taste. Regarding the coating of the outer shell 30, a coating method used in a conventional confectionery or a pill can be applied as it is.

Therefore, after the candle serves to light the candle will be able to eat the edible with food.

2 and 3 is a cross-sectional view showing another embodiment of the edible candle according to the present invention, which has the same structure as the candle illustrated in Figure 1, the length of the support is relatively short and has the same diameter as the candle at the bottom of the candle The ash 50 is attached to the structure to compensate for the ultra-wide length.

The support may be made of a confectionery component, and may have a multi-layered structure in which chocolate or the like is attached between the support member 50 and the candle as shown in FIG. 3.

Therefore, when the candle is used, it is possible to further save the candle material.In the case of an event such as a birthday party, the candle is usually turned off immediately after being lit, rather than being lit for a long time. The remaining part of the lower end can be obtained by producing a material such as confectionery, not the combustion material (10).

4 shows an example in which the shell is used as a container.

According to the figure, the chocolate is made in the form of a container 40 having a predetermined thickness, and the container 40 contains liquid oil or solid oil as the combustion material 10. The wick 20 is plugged into the top of the container 40 to be dipped in oil, the same as above used to dry the stem of the edible plant.

The shape of the container 40 is made flat, similar to the commercially available square chocolate, so that it has not only the function of the candle but also visual characteristics such as chocolate.

5 and 6 illustrate a candle made in a bottle shape or a heart shape as another variation of the present invention. In addition, it is possible to increase decorativeness by writing phrases such as HAPPY BIRTHDAY or I LOVE YOU on the outside.

7 and 8 illustrate a candle made of flowers as another embodiment of the present invention.

According to the drawings, the present invention is inserted into the combustion material 10 through the combustion material 10 made of edible oil filled in the outer shell 30 and the outer shell 30 forming a super-shape, the outer shell 30. Petal wick 20, and the upper portion of the outer shell 30, the decorative member 60 of the petal form mounted around the wick 20, the pedestal for supporting the decorative material 60 is attached to the outer shell 30 ( 70).

The decorative material 60 and the pedestal 70 are made of edible material, preferably made of chocolate.

FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 7, wherein the blocking film 80 is attached along the wick 20 so that the decoration material 60 outside the wick 20 is formed from the soot generated when the wick 20 burns. It is supposed to protect.

The wick 20 and the decoration material 60 are combined to achieve a single flower form to maximize decorativeness.

According to the edible candle according to the present invention as described above, it is possible to eat together without discarding the food even if the candle flows into the food by decorating the candle with an edible material. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the effort to remove the candle from food and minimize the waste of food or candles.
