I knew they were a different sort of confection but isn't it interesting they go so far back? I make sugar plums too but they are a glorified saucepan cookie rolled into little balls. They are delicious too. Love all the crafting you have done and the fairy wands are adorable! I have always loved The Nutcracker!
