What the creator captured
Eater explores the 126-year-old Lucas Candies shop to witness the labor-intensive process of making traditional handcrafted candy canes and beer brittle. The owners emphasize the physical toll of the work, from enduring stinging peppermint fumes to the strength required for pulling and shaping hot sugar. Their most memorable achievement is recreating the massive 'firetruck' candy canes from childhood memories to share with a new generation.
