SUMMARY:National Candy Cane Day
DESCRIPTION:\n\nNational Candy Cane Day on December 26th gives candy lovers a day to celebrate the red and white striped candies found abundantly during the holidays.\nIn 1844, a recipe for a straight peppermint candy stick, which was white with colored stripes, was published. However, some stories tell of all-white candy sticks in much earlier times. Folklore tells of the origin of the candy cane, yet no documented proof of its real beginning. Literature begins mentioning the candy cane in 1866, and it was first known to be mentioned in connection with Christmas in 1874. As early as 1882, candy canes have been hung on Christmas trees.\nFun Candy Cane Facts:\n\nThe average candy cane is 5 inches tall.\nWhile most candy canes are not sugar or calorie-free, they do not have any fat or cholesterol.\nStriped red and white candy canes were first introduced in 1900.\nThe first machine to make candy canes were invented in 1921 by Brasher O. Westerfield. Until then, they were made by hand.\nBob McCormack and his brother-in-law & priest Gregory Keller brought the candy cane to the masses. What started out as candy-making for McCormack’s friends and family turned into mass production when Keller invented the machine that enabled Bob’s Candies to go big time.\nTraditionally the flavor for candy canes is peppermint, but there are a variety of flavors.\nAlain Roby, Geneva pastry chef, holds the Guinness World Record for the longest candy cane, measuring 51 feet long.\n\n\n\n
