u003cbr/u003eLook for Red Hots in the candy aisle of your grocery store. I usually find them packaged in 5-ounce cardboard boxes rather than plastic bags. You could also use Hot Tamales candy, but I find these candies don’t have the same strong cinnamon flavor as Red Hots.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf you can’t find Red Hots in the candy aisle, check the baking aisle for cinnamon imperial sprinkles. Cinnamon imperials is the generic name for Red Hots. However, this may be a more costly option. If you don’t have an urgent need for cinnamon imperials right away, I recommend waiting until closer to the holidays. I can alway find large, cheap bags of cinnamon imperial candies at the grocery store around Christmastime.
