One of my favorite treats during the holidays is candy canes. Even though you can buy peppermint throughout the year, there is just something special about a candy cane. When I saw an advertisement for candy canes on satellite TV fromwww.directstartv.com, it reminded me that I needed to buy some for Christmas.
Candy canes make great Christmas tree decorations. We use candy canes instead of tinsel to dress up the tree. When I get ready for a snack, I will pull a candy cane off the tree. Edible decorations serve more than one purpose.
You can also use candy canes instead of bows. I do this all the time. It makes a pretty topping for a present and a nice treat.
Although my favorite candy canes are peppermint, I do occasionally try different flavors. They usually cost more, so I like buy a pleasing flavor. You can find all sorts of flavored candy canes. It is hard to beat peppermint though.
Mini candy canes are also fun. When I need a quick treat for a party, I will use mini candy canes. They always seem to go over really well. Candy canes are my favorite treat for Christmas because they are so versatile and fun.
