If what you mean is a cake shaped like candles, 3D, I once saw one of a set of 3 round pillar candles, all diffent heights. They used the 6" pans stacked on each other to get the desired heights. I believe the tallest one was about 12" (I know, super tall), then 8" and then 4" tall. They also were covered in fondant and had wooden rods to support the cakes at every 4", so the 12" had 2 cake boards with rods and the 8" had one cake circle with rods. Hope I'm making sense. And HTH. Good luck.
Oh, forgot to add, they also did them lit, all fondant and did some dripping wax on the sides, and they dusted them with super pearl, they were 2 red and 1 green, Christmas themed. They had poinsettas for decorations on the base of the candles.
I'm not much help because I am as beginner as they come, but are you talking about the cakes baked in a soup can? I think those are REALLY neat!! Heres a link for another thread here about the candle cakes baked in a soup can. HTH
