Well, darling, blowing out candles and making a wish on a birthday cake dates back to the ancient Greeks who believed that smoke carried their wishes to the gods. So, technically, when you blow out those candles, you're just participating in an ancient tradition of wish-making. Make a wish, blow out those candles, and hope for the best - that's the name of the game, honey!
They wish the candles were blowing them.

You blow out candles on a birthday cake because, before you blow them out, you make a wish, and if you blow them all out in one try, your wish comes true. I've had experience! That, plus it is easier to cut the cake if the candles are not burning.
Joy I see, happiness, laughter and cake... a happy birthday you will have.
Blow all the candles out on your birthday cake in one go and you can make a wish....but don't tell anyone or it won't come true!
It is said that the customer, tradition of a birthday wish was started by the earl Greeks who used to place candles on the cake that they offered to Artemis - the Goddess of Moon.
Usually it is the birthday person, or a close friend / family (if the person cannot or does not wish to cut the cake himself or herself).
