These fireworks can be used for all kinds of celebrations and many different reasons, and they’ll always look wonderful, no matter what you need them for. Let’s look into exactly what they can do and why you might want to buy ice fountain candles, and when you’re ready, just browse our selection and don’t hesitate to reach out with your questions; we’ll definitely have the answers.

What Are Ice Fountain Fireworks?

Ice fountain candles are gorgeous. That’s a good start, but is it enough? For some, the answer is yes – a beautiful-looking firework is all that’s needed, but the great thing about these specific fireworks is that they’re not just beautiful, they’re interesting as well.

When lit, they sparkle and flame and send out a dazzling display of colours and sparks – it looks fabulous, but it’s controlled and safe, so you get the best of both worlds.  

Even better, fountain fireworks don’t need a lot of set-up because they’re small (they can even be hand-held if you want, and if you take the right safety precautions), and all you have to do is place them in the right spot and light them, and they’ll do the rest by themselves. The rest being bright colours and sparks that light up the night sky.

What sets these fireworks apart from others is that they do offer an icy appearance (hence the name). By that, we mean that the sparks that shoot out of these fireworks is cooler and perhaps a little less intense than others, helping them become an integral part of many different celebrations, including those that need a little more grandeur and finesse.

The real beauty of an ice fountain firework is that they can turn a standard event into something truly special and memorable, no matter what you might want to use them for or what the occasion might be.

Where Can You Use Ice Candle Fountains?

An ice fountain firework is a fantastic choice because they’re just so versatile and they can be used in a number of different places and for all kinds of different reasons, ensuring that your celebration is one to remember for many years to come.

One great place to use ice fountain candles is at a wedding, for example. You’ll have all your family and friends close together, perhaps for the first time in a long time, and you’ll want things to look wonderful – adding these lovely candles to proceedings is definitely one way to do that. Weddings are the perfect place for fireworks because they’re a real celebration, and you’ll want the entire thing to be fabulous and memorable, and even the smallest firework can make a difference.

Birthdays are another excellent reason to buy ice fountain candles online. These are parties and events that are all about joy and celebration, and if you place an ice fountain on top of a birthday cake instead of traditional (and perhaps even boring!) candles, you’ll bring everything up to a whole new level of enjoyment and happiness. With a candle like this on your cake, the entire birthday song element becomes much more interesting; make a wish with an ice fountain and it’s sure to come true!

Of course, it’s not just a birthday cake that needs some impressive candles; all cakes and desserts can be elevated by adding fireworks to them, so why not go for it with ice fountain versions? You’ll turn a standard pudding into something much more interesting, and it can become a real centrepiece of any event or even a nice dinner – you don’t have to have a particular reason for using fireworks, so if you feel like it, go ahead!

Ice fireworks might be small, but they don’t have to be tabletop decorations if you don’t want them to be and you’ve got other ideas. What about putting them carefully around dance floors, for example? Your dance floor can be lit up beautifully and for a first dance at a wedding or a special speech or even just because, they’ll be a great addition to the party.

The truth is that all nighttime events can benefit from the addition of ice candles, so it’s well worth investing in a few to keep at home, ready for anything you might need them for. We’ve got plenty to choose from, so take a look and see what takes your fancy – there’s sure to be something you’ll love.

The History Of Fireworks

We all love fireworks – you wouldn’t be here if you didn’t – but what about their history and where they come from? What about why they even exist in the first place? It might not be something you’ve ever really thought about before, but it’s definitely something to consider; it will bring a whole new element to your choice of fireworks and your appreciation of them when they might otherwise just be taken for granted.

The fact is that there’s some debate about just where fireworks started and why they were invented, but many people believe that it was all happening in ancient China many thousands of years ago. However, unlike today’s fun fireworks, it seems as though these ones were practical – they were created to ward off evil spirits.

Whether it’s because there were lots of these spirits in China or just because people started to enjoy the fireworks with or without the spirits to frighten away, the next step was to make them more and more sophisticated, and Chinese experts started experimenting with different colours, noises, and effects to gradually create the fireworks we know and love so well today. By that time, spirits were pretty much forgotten, and these new, positive, bright fireworks were used for celebrations and festivals instead.

As often happens, due to explorers taking their favourite things from home and showing them to the rest of the world, fireworks soon travelled to other countries, eventually reaching Europe in the Middle Ages. Unsurprisingly (we know how great fireworks are, after all!), they quickly gained popularity and the royals in particular loved using them.

Back then, fireworks were very unsophisticated and not particularly safe, but over time this all changed, which is why we have so many options today and, when they’re used in the right way, they’re absolutely a safe thing to have.

Being Safe With Fireworks

Firework and fire safety is paramount when it comes to enjoying the fun and excitement they can bring, so make sure you know what to do and how to ensure you and everyone around you is safe so they can all enjoy the fireworks in the way they’re meant to be enjoyed, creating positive memories along the way.

The first thing to do is to choose quality fireworks. The better quality of fireworks you buy, the safer they’ll be because they’ll be up to all the right safety standards. Make sure you check on the safety certification markings on the fireworks because they’ll tell you you’re buying the right things that have been thoroughly checked over. At Galactic Fireworks, you can rest assured that all our fireworks are up to the standard you need – and expect – so browse our selection and you’ll soon find something you can enjoy.

It's also crucial that everyone follows the instructions regarding the fireworks to the letter. Always read the manufacturer’s instructions properly so you know exactly what to do and how to do it, and make sure you let everyone else know what to do as well. Remember that different fireworks will have different rules, especially when it comes to how to light them. Something that can help here is to make one person responsible for lighting all the fireworks, and that way, only one person has to know all the rules. It can just make things less complicated and reduce the chance of any mistakes happening with too many people getting involved.

You can also get extra tools to help you light fireworks more safely. Firework rockets, for example, are big and loud and have a lot of chemicals in them, so you don’t want to get too close – that’s where a launcher can come in handy, keeping you and everyone else at a safe distance. It’s well worth exploring the different options available that might help you.
