Minecraft Caves and Cliffs Part 1 is officially released for both Minecraft Java and Bedrock Edition. However, Mojang didn't add one feature to Bedrock Edition and decided to add it in a minor update later.

In Minecraft Bedrock 1.17.10.22, developers have finally added the much-awaited candles. Players can craft candles using honeycombs and strings. Since it's a candle, Mojang made sure players can add them on top of cakes.

Other than candles, Bedrock beta 1.17.10.22 also brought some changes to mobs and gameplay. Players can download the latest Bedrock beta to check out candles and more.
