Abstract

A candle with a candle body and a wick arranged within the candle body. The solution of the invention is specified by the features of claim 1 comprises a switch that switches in response to the wick being lit or extinguished. Coupling the switching to the wick (and thus the candle) being lit or extinguished allows for an easy an reliable control of the additional functions by the switch.
