Candy Cane Making

While we’ve all enjoyed a minty red and white-striped candy cane, few people know that the polkagris was first created in Sweden. In this relaxed one-hour class, you can pop on your apron and enjoy a chance to bake your own.

Candy Cane Making

Learn about the Swedish history of candy cane making from professional polkagris bakers, while attempting to bake your own. The recipe was discovered by accident during the 18th century, when a mother tried to make home-made cough medicine for her daughter. The mix of sugar, water, vinegar, and peppermint oil may not have soothed her daughter’s throat, but it did become a delicious treat and candy canes are now sold throughout the world.
