For over a 175 years, people around the world have enjoyed festive crackers for many occasions. Traditionally crackers have been used to adorn place settings at holiday tables. Originating in london, england in the 1840s, a confectioner began wrapping sugared candies in brightly colored paper twisted at each end. He later put the sweets in a small wrapped tube, adding a motto and a surprise gift. It was the crackle of a log in the fireplace that gave him the inspiration to create a pop when the wrapping was pulled apart and the festive cracker was born. When a cracker is pulled from both ends. The tube breaks open and a party hat, a joke and a surprise novelty/ gift are revealed. Crackers create memories and laughter, bringing family and friends together. They may be offered to guests, or brought as a gift to a host. They are ideal for parties and home entertainment, decorating holiday trees, wreaths, garlands, gift packages and table settings. Use your imagination.
