A decorative candle that includes an outer wax layer, at least one specifically shaped wax inlay, a wax plug, an inner wax filler, and a substantially rigid wick. The outer wax layer has a color, a first side, a second side, a top with a length, a bottom with a length, an outer surface, and at least one specifically shaped aperture being disposed therethrough. The at least one specifically shaped wax inlay has a color different than the color of the outer wax layer. Each of the at least one specifically shaped wax inlay is disposed in a respective one of the at least one specifically shaped aperture of the outer wax layer. The wax plug has a perimeter, a centrally disposed throughbore and is disposed at the top of the outer wax layer. The outer wax layer and the wax plug define a filler chamber. The inner wax filler has a bottom, a centrally longitudinally disposed throughbore, and is disposed within the filler chamber. And, the substantially rigid wick is disposed in the centrally longitudinally disposed throughbore of the inner wax filler.
