You can find candy canes sprinkled inside of cookies and other delicious Christmas recipes. Candy canes make great ornaments. You can buy real ones and hang them around the house or the plastic version works fine too. To create a festive mood on the holiday dinner table you can put out a couple of candy cane candles.
