We poured out our hot taffy on a clean snowy patch in our backyard.  After a few seconds, we rolled the taffy onto a popsicle stick.

The first time I ever had this was on a school trip to Quebec when I was a teenager.  We visited a traditional maple sugar shack.  Even though it wasn’t winter weather, they produced a tray of snow-like ice and I poured maple  taffy for us all to try.
