| How Candy Canes Are Made |
| Georgia Stories: The Candy Cane Factory |
Age Range: 7 and up (approximately, with adult supervision) At this website you can learn about the history of candy canes and see how they're made featuring the largest manufacturer of striped candy in the world, Bob's Candies.
|
In this 5-minute video presentation, you'll learn how Bob McCormack founded the company in 1919, how it was destroyed by a tornado in 1940, and discover who invented a machine for twisting and cutting stick candy and bending it into a candy
cane shape in the early 1950s. That machine revolutionized the business and resulted in the commercial manufacture of candy canes.
This is an interesting and engaging presentation that is sure to whet your appetite for the delicious peppermint confections. Better stock up before you watch the video! :)
Enjoy!
