The Bug
When candle cakes are eaten, the candles don't produce any sounds, particles, or subtitles upon being destroyed.
Steps to Reproduce
Place down a cake and a candle on top of it.
Eat a slice of the cake and as you do this, take note as to whether the candle produces sounds, particles, or subtitles upon being destroyed.
Observed Behavior
When candle cakes are eaten, the candles don't produce any sounds, particles, or subtitles upon being destroyed.
Expected Behavior
When candle cakes are eaten, the candles would produce sounds, particles, and subtitles upon being destroyed.
Original Description
This is due to there not actually being a minecraft:candle block being broken, but from a gameplay perspective that distinction shouldn't matter - it would be expected that breaking a candle and a candle being broken off of a cake would act basically identical.

When a candle block is broken (either by the player or through other environmental means e.g. via piston), it produces breaking particles and a sound is played, and the candle is dropped.
When a candle cake is eaten, despite this also causing the candle to drop, no sound nor particles are produced as a result, so this is clearly inconsistent.
Given the recent valid acknowledgement of MC-208194 I'd definitely consider this inconsistency unintentional.
Can confirm this behavior in 21w40a. Here are some extra details regarding this problem.

I don't understand what you mean, could you elaborate?
