What happened

This recall involves decorative flower-shaped candles marketed as "MUSIC CANDLE" that play "Happy Birthday to You" when lit. The candles are made of thin plastic with eight small candles and a combustible substance in the center. The product poses a burn and fire hazard because after the candles are lit, the plastic leaves open up and catch fire as the candle burns down. Additionally, a battery inside the candle can explode and be unexpectedly thrown in any direction during this process.

Authorities in Bulgaria ordered distributors to recall these candles from consumers. The record does not specify what steps an affected consumer should take in response to this recall.

Hazard

The product poses a risk of burns and fire because after lighting the candle the leaves open up and once the candle has burnt the leaves catch fire, burning intensively together with the rest of the flower. The battery then explodes and can be unexpectedly “thrown out” in any direction.
