Overview

In-game description
A hat with a birthday candle on top. You can turn the candle on in your inventory.

It is a skin of the plain Candle Hat, which everyone can craft from the start: the same cloth and five low grade fuel, no workbench, no research, the same return from the recycler. You light it from the inventory too. What you get for picking this one is a birthday candle instead of a plain one.

So it is a hat for an occasion. The clan lines up on the roof in party hats, someone holds up a birthday cake, and the candle on your head is lit for the screenshot. That is the moment it was made for.

On a night farm it lights your way like the plain hat and gives you away just the same, so put it out near other bases. There is no blueprint of its own to hunt for: if you own the skin, you pick this look when you craft the plain hat.
