10th anniversary candles

10th anniversary candles are one of the Limited Edition Items released on 4th of January 2011. They were released to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Runescape. It could be used on a 10th Anniversary Cake (with 10 candles) to create a special cake, which then could be lit with a tinderbox. After lighting an option to 'Celebrate' appeared where the player would perform an emote.

They can be dropped by any monster in Misthalin and Asgarnia, or more specifically, the area between Rimmington and the Sawmill. One is also able to find these candles from killing monsters found in free to play areas. They can also be obtained in a special "around the world" drop party held by a Jagex Moderator. It is possible to get 3 candles per drop. In addition, they can be obtained from the Falador Party Room. This is especially good for skillers/10hp pures as they can get it without getting any combat xp.

10 candles can be used on a 10th anniversary cake and then can be lit with a Tinderbox to create the full cake, which cannot be eaten once the candles are added.

10th anniversary candles are common drops from all monsters in the above area, such as Highwaymen, Varrock Guards, Cows, Dark Wizards (level 7), Men /Women, Goblins, Unicorns, and Outlaws.

Item dropped at approximately 1 to 3 candles at a time
