lol all this speculating is making me laugh.

It could just be that they wanted to change the name and have the added descriptions to make things fresh and more informative.

Stop scaring yourselves.

Edit:

This just came in:

Quote:
* Green Candy Cane: The return of the adventurer's favorite candy treat.

* Rainbow Candy Cane: A different flavor of candy cane that should also make those long days of questing much more enjoyable.

Alright, now is the time to panic!

* Winter Gift: What surprise will you find inside? "Unwrap" it to find out.

* Snowman Summoner: Need an instant snowman? This gift is for you.

* Eggnog: The holiday season's staple drink.

* Spiked Eggnog: A more potent glass of nog for the hale and hearty. Please imbibe responsibly—don't drink and quest.

* Green Candy Cane: The return of the adventurer's favorite candy treat.

* Rainbow Candy Cane: A different flavor of candy cane that should also make those long days of questing much more enjoyable.

* Yuletide Tonic: Drink this tonic if you want to be one of Dwayna's little helpers during the festivities.

* Frozen Globs of Ectoplasm: You'll need some of this collectible item when you get low on Yuletide Tonic.

* Candy Cane Shards: Collect these colorful fragments by questing and competing. The outcome of Wintersday hangs in the balance, and your contribution of Candy Cane Shards may make all the difference. Besides, you never know what somebody might trade for these once the festivities come to a close. Tip: Hold onto those shards until the Wintersday finale and use them for good (or mischievous) intent!

* Fruitcake: A tasty holiday staple that is sure to put a little spring in your step.

* Special Rewards: In the tradition of the season, you'll receive special headgear during the Wintersday finale. And even better, you'll get a new means of storing it, as well.

Green CC's are "The return of the adventurer's favorite candy treat." so I assume they'll be like our Peppermint ones but green...because this years thing is green themed.

Rainbow ones might also have some effect worth bringing, since it says we'll like them on our long adventures too...

hmm..

I think it gives Blessings for monster kills.

Imagine all those R7 Sunspear guys who will buy these for thousands!
