Holiday Sweets: Smash a Peppermint Pig in the Victorian Holiday Tradition
Purchase your Extra Pig at
A tradition that dates back to the early 1880s. Pig is made from hard peppermint candy. After a holiday dinner the pig is broken. The pieces are shared in hopes of good fortune for the coming year. It started in Saratoga Springs, New York, back in the early 1880s. A pig, revered as a symbol of good health, happiness, and prosperity, was made from hard peppermint candy. After a holiday supper, it was broken in a cloth bag and the pieces were shared by all in the hopes of good fortune for the coming year. Our 8 oz. peppermint pig comes with a red velvet bag and a forged steel hammer to start your own holiday tradition. Peppermint piglets (3 oz.) and replacement pigs are also sold separately. This will make a delightful hostess gift that’s sure to liven up a holiday party.
