ABSTRACT:
A small hand tool is provided for forming in a fruit or vegetable an exterior surface recess for complementarily receiving a tealight candle. The tool has a hollow cylindrical body centered around an axis and having a sharpened lower end portion, and a handle projecting axially upwardly from the top end of the body. A diametrically extending, laterally twisted cutting blade member is positioned within a lower end portion of the body and has a cutting edge portion lying in a plane transverse to the body axis. To form the candle receiving recess the tool body is pushed and twisted into the fruit or vegetable, until the top end of the tool body is flush with the outer side of the fruit or vegetable, and then pulled outwardly therefrom.
