For 200 years, the candy cane came only in one color -- white

National Candy Cane Day is celebrated December 26th in the United States

In December 1998 Richard and Kathleen Fabiano-Ghinelli made the biggest candy cane at 36 feet 7inches

Each year 1.76 billion candy canes are made -- enough to stretch from Santa Clause, IN to North Pole, AK and back again 32 times
