Explain why could not we just heat the water starting


In a lab, we had to measure the amount of heat released by a candle by heating up a tin of water with the candle and then determining the temperature change in the water. But first we had to add ice cubes to the water and start at the lowest temperature the water reached. Explain why could not we just heat the water starting at room temperature?
