The Candy Cane Glass Dildo arrived inside a velveteen pouch. It was protected with bubble wrap, which is also perfect for storing the Candy Cane and keeping it from getting scratched and damaged. I store all my glass items in the bubble wrap and drawstring bag. They have a separate section of my toy area, and for identification, I have placed a decal with the name of the item on the top of the bag.

The glass is temperature friendly, meaning you may play with it either hot or cold. I do not suggest using sudden temperature changes since that could damage or break the glass. Also, check the temperature with your hand after cooling or heating to make sure it will not injure you internally, burns or frostbite would be very difficult to treat internally. I like my glass cool, and do let it sit in ice water prior to playing. You may also run it under the faucet on either hot or cold water for safe temperature changes.

Borosilicate glass, or Pyrex, is treated and is less likely to shatter, instead it is supposed to break into chunks that are not as dangerous as shards. You must check the glass before every use, making sure there are no cracks, chips or damage. If there is any damage, this is unsafe for further use and must either be tossed or used for decorative purposes only.

The Candy Cane is going to be given as a gift for Christmas. No one will know its original purpose--but me--and it will look very nice on the tree or as other decoration. I am planning to use mine along the sides of our porch as a pretty and unique 'icicle'. I do have one reserved for my personal use, however. I am not that generous!

This works very well for solo or partner play. The curved top is perfect as a handle, just take care during use not to bruise the cervix or vaginal canal. I accidentally slipped and realized this could be used as a DP toy, too. Oops!! That was not a good feeling if unprepared!

The Candy Cane is 3/4" diameter, has 6 1/2" that is insertable on the long side and 1/2" on the handle. There is 2 1/8" space in between the long side and the tip of the cane. When the short end is inserted, use a rocking motion on the long end for G-spot stimulation. This is amazing!!

There is no texture, the glass is smooth and slippery. The red stripes are internal and therefore do not add to the sensations in any way. This is a very enjoyable item, and beginners to advanced users can enjoy this Candy Cane!! I love the ability to also use it for decorating and gift giving. There is nothing that says sex toy which makes this very versatile!!

The tips on each end are rounded and comfortable for insertions, and the shape allows for anal use as well. You can use any type of lube with this item. Wash it off thoroughly with soap and water, rinse well, dry it and either use toy cleaner or one of the following options for sanitizing the Candy Cane.

Boil the dildo for 10 minutes, placing it in the cool water and letting it heat up gradually to prevent breakage. Use 10% bleach and water solution and soak for 15 minutes. Buy glass sanitizer at a bar supply outlet and follow directions. Rub with alcohol and let air dry.

I love this little candy cane!! Not only do I have one for my personal play...but I ordered extras to go with my Christmas decorations and to add to a couple presents. Will I spill and let them know the 'other' use for their pretty glass ornament? I might give them a hint later--but only after the holidays are over. (I do not want them looking at my decorations funny--there are a few items that are 'dual purpose' on my tree!!
