Sweet Christmas display

Bob Dolan readily admits he could have erected his exterior Christmas decorations on a more delightful morning.

"We always pick the crappiest day," he said. "When it's nice, we're doing something else."

On Thanksgiving, for instance, when the high temperature hit 73, he and family members went turkey hunting instead.

So yesterday found Dolan and son Josh bundled against a blustery north wind and near freezing temperatures in their south Salina front yard assembling a red plywood sleigh. Already the duo had installed eight giant candy canes, fashioned from 3- and 2-inch PVC pipe.

Dolan, owner of BMK Plumbing and Solar of the Midwest, didn't have to wander far afield to find the raw materials for the candy canes.

Some years ago, he was pricing commercial candy canes when inspiration struck.

"I could make them for nothing," he said.

The naked canes eventually would be dressed in ribbon and appear more candy-canish and less like plumbing supplies.

Chocolate Ribbon | Chocolate Candy Making!

You need to bend it at the begining before it get hard instead of addind hot chocolate on the already hard chocolate.

white chocolate takes longer then dark chocolate to harden so you need to put white 1st. Then when white is becoming sligthly hard you add dark so they both harden together at the same time allowing you to bend it before evrything get too hard so it doesnt break and stay nice looking

I dropped the chocolate class in college. It takes someone with more patience than I’ve got. The day they brought out the Wagner cordless paint sprayer, and filled it with warm chocolate was my final appearance. Hats off to those that work with that medium. I don’t mind working with sugar, but there’s a lot more to chocolate than meets the eye.
