This is all you need:

My little helper:

We learned that if you want to achieve the beautiful pink/red colour that you'll see on Storybook Woods, then you need to use red & white candy canes! lol Ours had green as well, and we got this lovely shade of brownish black ;) Luckily, we had big plans for adding our syrup to hot chocolate and chocolate cake, so it didn't matter!

Note: If you just don't want to make syrup, we learned one year, that if you stir a piece of candy cane into your hot chocolate, you get some delicious minty hot chocolate as well!
As a mother of 2 little girls, aged 4 years & 14 months, I've decided to record the activities I'm doing at home, in an effort to motivate myself to do more, and to share ideas with other moms.




Crushed up candy canes are also fabulous on ice cream!
