A decorative candle display including a non-opaque container of a defined geometrical shape and volume, and a heat-meltable, non-opaque candle placeable within this container. The candle has a defined geometrical shape which can be substantially complimentary to the shape of the container. Within the non-opaque gel of the candle are a plurality of image-producing gaseous cells and a conventional ignitable wick extending substantially there through with an exposed end for lighting. The density of the gel and the volume of the container are cooperatively correlated such that the volume of the container accommodates a sufficient quantity of water in which the candle will float upon introduction of this sufficient water quantity into the container. Ignition of the wick of the floating candle results in passage of light caused by the flame through the non-opaque, and preferably substantially transparent, gel and finally through the non-opaque, and preferably substantially transparent, container within which the candle is situated. The gaseous cells formed within the gel allow projection of images corresponding to the shapes and sizes of the cells on surrounding surfaces as light is transmitted through the gel, thereby creating a unique candle-light glow effect above, below, and around the display.
