This festive season is a great time to indulge in our favorite treats. But make sure you have room in your stomach for some candy canes! This sugary treat has been a tradition for much longer than most people realize. Their origins can be traced back to Germany’s 17th century. The candy cane, which was usually red and white with white stripes, was curved to look like a shepherd’s hook. They are still found on Christmas trees today, and many people give candy canes as gifts.

Over the years, we have seen many candy cane flavors come to market. Peppermint is the most popular flavor. Candy canes can be found in many flavors, including cherry candy canes and chocolate candy canes. You can also choose from many color combinations. Red and white stripes are the most popular combination. Many stores stock red, white and green candy canes.

Candy canes are so common during Christmas that they are almost considered part of the holiday season. Although it’s a fascinating story, few people know the origins of candy canes. German folklore says that the first candy canes were invented by a Cologne choirmaster who needed to keep children quiet during the long Christmas Eve Mass.

He ordered peppermint-flavored candy sticks at a local confectioner. But he added a few twists to make them more religiously symbolic. First, he wanted the sticks to have the same shape as we know them. This would allow them to be used to represent the various canes the shepherds might have brought to Jesus’ birth. Many believe that the candy cane transforms into the letter J when it is turned upside down, which represents Jesus.

The choirmaster also requested that the sticks be both white (to symbolize the sinless, pure life Jesus lived), and red (to symbolize the blood Jesus shed when he was killed for the sins of the world). There is no evidence to support this idea, and candy cane historians or anyone else who has looked into the matter have refuted it. However, candy cane can be enjoyed on its special day without any expert knowledge.

If you’re not a skilled confectioner, it can be difficult to make candy canes at home. It’s also likely that your attempts will lead to more mess than good. We are not going to share a candy-cane recipe. Instead, we will give you a recipe that you can make with candy canes.
