December 26th
National Candy Cane Day
Candy
Cane History Candy canes were created in 1670 in Germany, by the choirmaster of
the Cologne Cathedral. He created sugar sticks for the young singers in the
choir, to keep them quiet during the long Living ceremony. He bent the
sugar-sticks to represent a shepherd's staff. At this point, candy canes were
all-white and had no flavoring. They remained this way for more than 330 years.
White candy canes can still be seen on Christmas cards dating to 1900. Shortly
after then, the first red-and-white striped candy canes appeared. The name of
the innovator is lost to history. At about the same time, confectioners added
peppermint and wintergreen flavors to create the candy cane.
