Vissevasse Cake With Candles Greeting Card, 10.5 X15 Cm

A candle for each year. The tradition of placing candles on cakes originated in ancient Greece, where the moon goddess Artemis was celebrated decorated with round, burning candles. The burning cakes symbolized the moon, and the smoke from the candles would carry the wishes of worshippers all the way to Artemis. Today, the number of candles that still burn after blowing out the birthday boy should indicate the number of friends / girlfriends.
