A Healthier Stocking Stuffer

Based on a 19th-century recipe, Pure Fun Candy Canes ($4.49; Whole Foods, Albertson’s, Publix, and other stores nationwide) are made with organic evaporated cane juice and brown rice syrup instead of processed sugar and corn syrup, and use organic fruit juice instead of artificial colors. They’re also gluten-free, kosher, vegan—and just 62 calories each.

How do they taste? Sweet and minty. In fact, we doubt the Cindy Lou Whos in your house will be able to tell you made a switch.
