Old idiom that means the potential benefits or rewards of an action or endeavor should justify the effort, time, or resources invested in it. The phrase has its origins in the idea of needing a candle to provide light for an activity, and the light should be worth the cost of the candle itself.

When your 15th birthday is just a regular day. Think of the Molly Ringwald movie "Sixteen Candles" but move back one year.
Mel: Ugh my birthday will be 15 Candles.
Sebastian: Aw don't think like that. You'll have a bombastic birthday, babe.
Mel: awww thanks

Shit, can you help get this bottle out of that hole?
Hold on, I got a candle idea. (Proceeds to use a fishing rod instead of a grabber but successfully gets it out anyways.)

Shit, I dropped my wallet down there. Can you help me get it out?
Hold on, I got a candle idea (Proceeds to use a fishing rod instead of a grabber to fetch it. They successfully retrieve it but in the process make a clown out of themselves.)

Basically all candle munging is you take you and group of friends to a graveyard dig up a deadbody(usually female) BUT! here's the twist while you and your buddies are fucking the deadbody you're also going to start performing the candeling process(sticking a candle up a vagina) so once you and your friends are done nutting in the rotting vagina you put the candle up the vagina and it melts the inside, and your friend is going to be eating all of the cum maggots and candle wax out of the vagina.

An extreme form of tealight. Pour a shot of Johnny Walker Black Label (or whiskey of your choosing) into a small plastic disposable cup. Set alight to the rim of the cup. The plastic will burn until it sets fire to the whiskey, at which point a blue flame will appear and burn for approximately one hour. Be careful with fire, kids. This is also not very good for the environment or your personal economy. Plastic should be recycled not burned, and Johnny Walker should be drunk and not burned. It is very beautiful, on the other hand.
