tealight

Small cupped candle

A tealight is a small candle in a thin metal or plastic cup, designed to burn for several hours.

The shallow container holds the wax as it melts completely.

Tealights are used in decorative holders, under food warmers, and in aromatherapy diffusers: She scattered tealights around the bathtub.
