PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a candle resistant to the extinction by wind by improving the defect of conventional candles apt to be extinguished with wind owing to the use of a single wick for burning. SOLUTION: The candle is composed of a wick positioned at the center and a wax matrix. The wax matrix contains burnable subsidiary wicks concentrically positioned around the center wick. The subsidiary wick may be formed in cylindrical form. As an alternative, the subsidiary wick is composed of three or more linear or ribbon-like wick members and the members are arranged at nearly equal intervals around the center wick.
