拐棍糖-怎样成为了圣诞特色食品

白色的棍状糖果。白色象征着圣诞季节的纯净无瑕。糖果上的红色条纹是基督流在十字架上的鲜血……
The candy cane begins with a stick of white candy. The white symbolizes the purity of the Christmas season. Red stripes are for the blood shed by Christ on the cross so that we may have eternal life.
The candy cane is formed into a "J" to represent the precious name of Jesus. It can also represent the staff of the Good Shepherd. Its hard consistency represents the Solid Rock, the foundation of the church, and the firmness of the promises of God.
