The Maple Sap is poured onto the snow! Who would imagine snow as a tool for dessert? I never did.
Most people find it weird, but this is true. The sap is poured onto the snow and is then lifted with a fork, a popsicle stick or a small wooden stick making it look like your own lollipop.

People have found a new thing to do with snow besides the usual snowballs and snowmen this is to make their own maple taffy. You can do this anytime as long as you have snow in your country. :) Too bad we don't have winter here. :\
