| In merry olde England in 1847 a British confectioner started selling sugared almonds each with a motto as love tokens. It just so happened that one Christmas day a jet of resin from the confectioner s log fire burst into flame with a loud "crack". Ever the inventive sort he decided to make a log shaped package that would produce a surprising bang and inside would be an almond and a motto. It soon became a party favorite and toys and hats were added to each cracker. By 1900 crackers were a well-established Yuletide custom. Since that time crackers have become popular at all types of celebrations including Hanukkah. These are elegantly wrapped in blue and silver foil but are lots of fun nevertheless!10 Crackers Each 8 1/2" L Each cracker contains: a tissue party hat snap joke and a specially selected novelty gift Handmade in the UK Not suitable for children under 3 years |
