Candy canes

                                  Introduction 

Candy canes weren't always striped, they were developed by just white strips of sugar.In the mid-1600 candy makers made candy canes by hand instead of machine. The task needed a lot of time and strength. The ingredients needed to be mixed, heated and then pulled, cut and twisted. The first candy sticks were made in 1670 by choirmaster in Germany. The candy canes were for the kids who went to the Christmas Nativity pageant.



Opinion 

My opinion on candy canes are that since they are a stick of sugar I think that kids should eat the smaller candy canes in stead of the larger ones because that much sugar can make a kid get hyper. Some parents don't let their kids eat candy canes because of the sugar. But the candy makers who make it by hand do work very hard and should get more credit. This video from Wonderopolis showed me that.
