The Trail of Painted Ponies "Peppermint Twist," 1E/2,349 (damaged box).
According to legend, candy canes were created to symbolize Jesus, their shape representing the letter J. But to most people the hard, cane-shaped candy, traditionally with red and white stripes and flavored with peppermint, is as much an ornament as a confection, a sweet treat to munch as well as to decorate a tree. The artist who created this tasty Holiday Pony hails from Alabama and keeps out a bowl of candy canes and swirls at Christmastime... and often long past.
