A candy dish filled with these mint cream "straws" is a sure sign that Christmas is upon us. These old-fashioned treats are made by a third generation of candy makers, and are made only during the holiday season. The outside is a refreshing hard peppermint shell that melts away to reveal a memorable creamy mint center. 160 candies in a 2 lb. bag.
Thanks to these Mint Cream Straws, it's beginning to taste a lot like Christmas.

“In 1990 Our Mother was diagnosed with a brain tumor. All 7 of my siblings helped to care for her for about 6 months before her death. One of my sisters brought in a bag of Mint Cream Straws from our local grocer. We loved them and without them we would not have made it through some very tough nights. What was once fairly easy to find is now an extreme treat. I searched for them last year and finally found them with Vermont Country Store. We all get together each year at Christmas to share memories which include the Mint Cream straws. Thanks for the memories.” — Kathy Hatton, Richmond, KY
