Classic Christmas Candy and Its Traditions
Candy canes are a classic holiday tradition. They started as simple white candy sticks in Germany and later took on their famous red and white stripes. The cane shape, which looks like a shepherd's crook, is why they became a symbol of Christmas. Today, candy canes are enjoyed both as festive decorations and sweet treats. You can also explore more global Christmas treats in our guide to festive holiday foods.
