Reported risk: The candles are 3 1/2 inches tall and are in the shape of a yellow duck sitting on a green base. The duck has a blue ribbon around its neck, and has an orange beak. A label on the bottom of the candle has the UPC code - 7 38449 38819 8 - and says, "Made in China." Hazards: When the duck-shaped candle burns, the pooling of wax can ignite the paint on the duck, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers.
