Definiția și Sensul lui "candy cane"

What is "candy cane"?

A candy cane is a type of hard candy that is shaped like a cane or walking stick. The candy is usually made from sugar, corn syrup, and peppermint flavoring, which gives it its distinctive red and white stripes and refreshing minty taste. The candy is formed by cooking the ingredients together and then pulling and twisting the mixture while it is still warm to create its long, curved shape. Candy canes are often enjoyed during the holiday season and are a popular decoration for Christmas trees. They can be hung on the tree or used to decorate holiday desserts, such as cakes and cupcakes. Candy canes are also a popular treat for children, who often enjoy sucking on them or using them to stir hot drinks like cocoa or tea.
