I was thinking the same thing the other day except filled with syrup. One of my students at school had little straws filled with honey. I wonder if something similar could be made with syrup.

Though I'd worry about preventing spoilage.

Ha! It's been discussed on here before: http://mapletrader.com/community/showthread.php?t=979&highlight=maple+straws

i went to a steve childs workshop and he made them. excellent product, and a good cheap iron would work for sealing the straws. just dont overdo it and burn thru. i guess they can make a little $$$ too:)

If you put the syrup in the straw seal it then put it in boiling water for 10 minutes that will fix that problem.
