Macaroni Made ~ Valentines Sucker

Turn left over candy canes into cute Valentines

By Jody Lynn Chin February 7, 2013

What do you do with left over candy canes?  Make Valentines Day suckers, of course!

  • Candy Canes
  • Lollipop Sticks (available at craft or hobby store)
  • Baking pan

Heat oven to 250 degrees and cook for 6 – 8 min depending on the candy cane (some melt a little faster than others).   I did just one first so I knew how long it would take for the rest.   After they have baked for 6 – 8 min, simply press the ends that are not connected together, push the stick in and let it cool for 10 min.  They should be hard enough and stuck together.  A yummy and cute way to get rid of the candy canes.    Put a small cello bag on with a pretty ribbon tied around the bottom and it makes a cute little Valentine!
