What Store Can I Buy Sour Jacks?



The candy cane has long been a symbol of Christmas, with its taste of mint.
Why are candy canes are white with red stripes? According to tradition, were invented a dolciaio that he intended to create a cake that people remember Jesus. Here is what is the candy cane:
E 'made of solid caramel because Jesus is the solid rock on which our lives are built (Matt 16:18) (1Thess 5:24).
caramel gave the form of a "J" for Jesus (Jesus in English) (Acts 4:12), while for others it is the shape of a shepherd's crook, because Jesus is our Shepherd (John 10:11).
The colors were also chosen to represent the importance of Jesus: white for purity and the absence of sin in Jesus (Heb 4:15), and the large red stripe represents the blood of Christ shed for the sins the world (John 19:34-35). The three thin red stripes represent the stripes left by the lashes of the Roman soldier (Isaiah 53:5).

The flavor is peppermint stick that is similar to hyssop, an aromatic plant of the mint family used in the Old Testament for purification and sacrifice. Jesus is the pure lamb of God who came to sacrifice for the sins of the world.

Many legends tell that the tree is a tree from the garden of Eden.
One says that the tree is the tree of life whose leaves are withered needle when Eve plucked the forbidden fruit and flowers until the night that baby Jesus was born.

Another legend says Adam took a twig of the tree of good and evil with him from Eden. This later became the fir tree branch that was used for the Christmas tree and the Holy Cross.
