As a candle burns it produces the by products that are the result of that burning [burning of the wax and the wick]

For the most part these by products are Carbon Dioxide, Water and Soot [Carbon] if the candle burns with a sooty flame.

Yes. If you put your hand in or near a burning candle, it is hot, meaning a burning candle is a source of heat.

All do, a candle burning at 2 thousandths of a gram per second gives off about 80 watts of heat and 0.05% light
