Candy canes have been around for centuries, with the first recorded reference to them dating back to 17th-century Germany. They were originally made by hand, which is pretty cool to think about - can you imagine crafting each individual candy cane by hand?

Today, candy canes are still made using a combination of traditional techniques and modern machinery. They're churned out by the millions each year, with some factories producing over 1 million candy canes per day! That's a whole lotta sugar and peppermint.
Despite their mass production, candy canes remain a beloved holiday treat. They're a symbol of Christmas and all the joy and cheer that comes with it. Plus, they're just plain fun to eat - who doesn't love the thrill of unwrapping a candy cane and taking that first, sugary bite?
