Candy Cane is the het ship between Nora Valkyrie and Oscar Pine from the RWBY fandom.

Canon
In volume 5 chapter 3 Oscar first enters the room they are staying in and askes if Ruby Rose was there. Nora then immediately glared and her body noticeably stiffened asking him why did he needed to know that. It was then cleared up by Qrow that Oscar was harmless and was with him. Nora then became utterly fascinated by Oscar as Ozpin's new host, and kept gushing over him.

She even at one point referred to him as cute boy Ozpin. Ozpin greatly dissapproved of that though and asked her to please not call him that. Nora then later watched him with Jaune train with Ruby. They then both were seen kneeling by an unconscious Ruby during the battle at mistral academy. Later in volume 6 her team gets separated from team rwby and oscar.

Once they make it to Argus though the first thing Nora does when she sees the others is run up to Oscar yelling out "Cute boy Oz!". She then proceeds to tackle hug him to the ground. In the next chapter Nora is shocked to see Jaune being so aggressive with Oscar and accusing him of not being who he says he is. In volume 8 when Oscar is finally reunited with everyone Nora walks up to him. Oscar fearing she was going to tackle glomp him again, closes his eyes and puts his arms out bracing for impact. But instead she gives him a soft, gentle hug. Oscar is shocked by this but seems relieved and gladly hugs her back.

Fanon
Candy Cane is a rarepair in the RWBY fandom, this is mainly because of the more popular ships like ReNora and Rose Garden. Some people like to think of the two having more of a sibling like relationship than a romantic one. Especially since there is a 4-year year age gap between the two of them. Regardless, if people ship them or not most can agree the two have a healthy, friendly relationship. Some fans were also happy with a hug the two shared in volume 8. It has a small fanbase on tumblr.
