A candy cane is peppermint flavoured boiled sugar, shaped like a hook and hung on the tree. That is 14 g of carbs and nothing else.

At 55 kcal it is one of the lowest numbers on the Christmas sweets list, and it lasts a while.

They are more of an American tradition, but you see them on trees and in stockings in the UK too.

Tips

  1. 1Hang them on the tree and have one when you want something sweet.
  2. 2Crush one over hot chocolate for the mint without a syrup.
