A little trip down memory lane, these charming chenille candy canes will flood you with nostalgia. Perfect for topping pretty packages, adorning wreaths, or scattering upon your tree, these wired candy canes have a vintaged wash that makes them look as if they have been cherished for countless holidays.  

The lore of the candy cane is rich and legend has it that the candy cane dates back to 17th century Europe when pulled sugars were all the rage. A clever choirmaster at the Cologne Cathedral in Germany handed out sugar sticks among his young singers to keep them quiet during the ceremony. When criticized for bringing sweets into church, he bent the candies into shepherds’ crooks so that they would be more suited for the occasion.
