Soldier Combat Candles

Start a War on Any Cake with These Green Army Men Candles

If you're looking to add a little military action to your birthday cake, then these green army men candles are just the ticket.

These candles are formed in the shape of the classic green toys that have been a toy chest staple for much of the past 20th century. As they melt, the army men candles will sadly become fallen soldiers, but the added touch they'll add to your cake is sure to make it a bittersweet occasion.

The candles might be perfect for a youngsters cake, but placing a handful of these on top of any guy's cake is sure to elicit some fond memories of childhood playtime. Each box comes with five of the men in various poses where one is taking a shot, another is shooting a bomb and the commander is calling in for back-up.
