When my husband mentioned that he'd never heard of them, though.

I don't even remember what made me think of these little confections. Now, I have no idea if today's recipe is actually Canadian or not, but it's an example of 'Oh, you can't get them here? Well then, I MUST HAVE SOME NOW!'. Something about homesickness really makes you crave pretty much everything you can't find locally! Recently, I've had my mind on Canadian foods. Homemade Marshmallow Cones look the same, but taste WAY better, imho Marshmallow Cones dipped in colourful sugar was a fun treat, growing up.
