Candles mostly serve as decorative lights because of their low light levels and color. You can craft them by placing honeycomb below string in the crafting screen. And you can then change the candle's color by applying Dye to it.

Campfires

Campfires can be used to damage mobs, cook food, harvest honey, and set up smoke signals. They're pretty convenient, especially when doing long distance exploration, as they can do a lot of things for you.

However, Soul Campfires are more effective than the regular campfire as they can be used in the Nether to prevent Piglins from approaching you.
