The Candle is an item in The Legend of Zelda and The Adventure of Link. In both games, the Candle is used to light dark areas.
The Legend of Zelda
In The Legend of Zelda, the Candle can also be used as a weapon along with its primary use of lighting dark rooms and burning bushes. By pressing the item button when the Candle is equipped, Link shoots a flame two spaces in front of him. The flame deals the same damage as the original Sword and can burn bushes which reveal secrets.
The Blue Candle, the first one obtained in the game, can be bought for 60 Rupees from a certain Item Shop, and can only be used once until Link moves to a different screen. The Red Candle, an upgraded version of the Blue Candle, can be used infinitely on one screen but one can only shoot two flames at a time. If Link has the Book of Magic, the Magical Rod shoots a beam that turns into fire[2] when it hits an enemy or a wall, essentially making the Candles useless.
The Adventure of Link
In The Adventure of Link, the Candle is used for the singular but critical task of lighting up dark caves, allowing Link to safely move through them. It is the dungeon item of Parapa Palace.

BS The Legend of Zelda
The Blue Candle is available in the Item Shop immediately north-west of the Starting Screen from the beginning of Week 2. It is required to burn a group of three trees which block a bridge west towards Level 3 and Level 4. As standard, it costs 60 rupees, but the Starting Screen cave Old Man casts a spell on merchants to temporarily reduce the price of all shop items, including the Blue Candle, to half price between 20 and 28 minutes into Week 2. As in The Legend of Zelda it works only once per screen transition, although from 30-38 minutes on the clock in Week 2, it is temporarily upgraded to the Red Candle.
The Red Candle itself is permanently available in Level 7, which is accessible only in Week 4.
