I have never made meringue before...
But I saw these somewhere on Facebook with candy cane kisses
and thought they looked wonderful, I am not sure where I found them
so if you posted it let me know so that I can give you credit.

The first batch I made I used the candy cane kisses and tinted the meringue with red food colouring.
The second batch, I used chocolate kisses and mixed in candy cane crumbs in the meringue.
Both smell heavenly.
Candy Cane Meringue Kisses
recipe adapted from Angel Kisses: King Arthur Flour
2 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tarter
dash of salt
1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp sugar
Hershey kisses - I used candy cane kisses and chocolate kisses
1-2 drops of red food colouring
crushed peppermints
red coloured sugar or sprinkles
Preheat oven 200 degrees F
Turn off oven. You can now add coloured sugar or sprinkles at this time. Return the meringue back to oven and leave in until completely cooled - at least 3 or more hours or even over night. I was able to make 21 -24 meringue kisses.
For the meringues that I made with the chocolate kisses, I crushed about 1/8 cup of candy cane and mixed into the meringue before piping it around the kisses. I did not put food colouring in the meringue or use sprinkles with these. Some of the pieces of candy canes were bigger then the others.
