Cute way to use up candy canes for Valentine's Day!!
Let your leftovers say "love"
Use surplus candy canes from Christmas to create original Valentines. With some minor melting, they can decorate cupcakes and gift boxes, or cards that will be hand delivered.
How to do it:: Remove the cellophane wrapping from the canes and form hearts by placing them hook to hook and tail to tail on a nonstick baking sheet or one lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350º F for 2 to 4 minutes (depending on the canes' size) or until they stick together when you pinch the ends lightly. Cool thoroughly and remove with a spatula. If you want to make flat hearts with psychedelic stripes, bake for 8 to 10 minutes.

I'm taking the two that I have in my drawer at the office home with me... I will try to make the flat one and see if it can make the trip to LA for Shane without breaking...

Don't know about that candy cane heart, but that cupcake sure looks good!
Great idea with the candy canes though!
