Goodies - I like anything chocolate, but also pfeffernusse.

We sing "Stille Nacht" every year and I make pfeffernusse and stollen and lebkuchen. Would not be Christmas without them!

You can also make your own. Barley Lollipop recipe:

The molds used to make barley candy were cast iron & are no longer made. You can find them for sale as well, but you'll need a deep purse.

Once refined sugar became more available they stopped using barley sugar. The candy made now is now called Clear Toy Candy & has no barley in it.

Thank you for the web info, even if expensive they'll be worth it if they taste they way they used to. Thank you also for the recipe, may have to go hunting for molds.

Many beautiful songs fill my head every Christmas season but the favorite always is Anne Murray, the fabulous Canadian singer's, "If I had one wish this Christmas." It has even more special meaning since I have lost two amazing husbands but they are always with me! As to sweets and treats, I love Tipsy Cake but I miss making goodies with Mama even more than eating anything sweet!
