The first historical reference to the popular candy cane goes back to the 1670's when the choir master at the Cologne Cathedral in Germany, bent sugar sticks into canes to represent a shepherds staff. The All-White candy canes were given out to the children during the long winded Nativity services. Before 1900 the canes were all white and the introduction of flavoring and colored stripes came after 1900.
