These candy canes are primarily intended to be eaten as a sweet confection. They can be enjoyed by slowly dissolving the hard candy in the mouth, offering a prolonged burst of green apple flavor.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their quality and prevent sticking, store any remaining candy canes in a cool, dry place. Keep them in their original wrappers or an airtight container. Avoid exposure to heat or humidity, which can cause them to become sticky or melt.
