The German Back -to-School Schultute Goody Cone Tradition and Craft Project Reposted by Ruth Paget

The German Back-to-School Scultute Goody Cone Tradition dates back to the 1800s.

Schultute cones are filled with Germany candy and school supplies. You can buy these cones ready made in Germany or make them yourself for a more personalized selection of candy and decorative style.

The following website details the current tradition, the history, schultute contents, and how to make these back-to-school cones at home:
