Abstract: A candle is constructed of a series of wax members arrayed in a stack, and extending between a top wax member and a base wax member. Each wax member has a through-hole, and a wick is closely received within the through-holes in the wax members to extend between the top wax member and the base wax member in the stack. The wick therefore retains the wax members about its length, but its flexibility and “play” allows for limited motion of the wax members with respect to each other about the wick. As a result, the wax members may be reconfigured so that the candle assumes different shapes, in accordance with the user's tastes and desires.
