———————— If one 18 willing to devgte a little, ime and patience to the work, a great rariety of most delicious bonbons may se made at less than half the price srdinarily charged by the confectioner. Recipes have been often given for vari- ous cream candies compounded of ronfectioner’s sugar worked to a paste | with water and the white of an egg. The chief, if not the only merit, which these possess, is that they are very juickly prepared. They are so greatly inferior to the boiled eream confections ;n every way, especially in wholesome- ness, that no space will be devoted to them here. (Granulated sugar may be recommend- ad for all creams as being more reliable than powdered or confectioners sugar. Excellent results are produced with the pulverized augar oftentimes, but it is not so uniformly pure. In waking the foundation cream the writer invar- iably uses water and the granulated sugar. Milk or cream is preferable to water by some good bonbon makers. One objection may be urged against | either of these, which the inexperienced | will do well to consider. If one chances to fail in the first experiment with the foundation cream, it 1s a simple matter to add more water and repeat the pro- sess, and the cream will not suffer because of the second boiling. Where milk is used, the flavor of the cream is likely to be impaired by so much cook- ing, and this is even more noticeable with exaam, FOUNDATION CREAM. Teo a pint of granulated sugar allow a scant half-pint of water. Place them on the back ohibe rangein a gradite kettle or bright tin basin, until the sugar has nearly dissolved, shaking the kettle occa- sionally to assist the process, but never | stirring. Bring forward and boil, skimming off whatever impurities rise to the surface without disturbing the syrup. When it has boiled ten minutes. test it by allowing it to run slowly from the end of the spoon. It will soon drip in elongated drops, and finally a long fine thread wil float from the end of the spoon. As soon as as this appears, remove from the fire and set in a pan of snow or in ice-water, and allow it to partially cool. ‘While still blood warm begin to work it with a stout spoon. Should the syrup be boiled too long a crust will have formed on the top, which may be removed before stirring. When cooked exactly right the surface is covered with a thin skin. When the syrup thickens and whitens add a pinch of cream of tartar. Beat again until thick enough to handle, then work with the hands. Add any flavoring desired. This foundation cream is the base of almost all fine, rich bonbons. Its excel- lence depends upon several conditions. First, the sugar should be pare; it should be al owed to dissolve gradaslly it should not be stirred atall while on the stove; it must be cooked to exactly the right consisteney ; it should be partially cooled before being worked, and then worked vigorously and well. A little experience enables one to tell just the instant the syrup should be removed from the fire, wad the rest of the work Presents no obstacles, If cooked too ong the cream will *‘grain” and become dry and hard, while with too little cooking one will not be able to mould it, COCOANTUT BALLA, Flavor a portion of the foundation cream with vanilla and work in a little desiccated coconut. Form into small balls and set in a cold place for a little time. Moisten cach slightly with beaten white of egg—a brush is excel- lent for this pur then roll in grated cocoanut and set in a cold place till firm. FIG STRIPS. Chop a few figs, and cook witha little water and sugar until they become a thick paste. Make a small sheet of the cream, spread with the fig paste, which should cold, cover with another sheet of the cream, press together well, and cut in short strips or squares, CREAMED ALMONDS. Flavor the cream with almond extract and Sform into loaf-shaped candies. Press an almond into the center of each and roll in coarse sugar or mn chopped almonds, as preferred. It is customar to use the almonds without blanching, as the flavor is finer. CHOCOLATR CREAMS, Vanilla or lemon is best for flavorin the cream. Make into small balls nd set aside on a buttered plate till firm. Break up some Baker's chocolate and set the basin containing it in boiling water until the chocolate has dissolved. Add a tiny bit of butter or melted suet to thin it a little. Drop the cream balls, one at a time, in the chocolate till all are coated, then set away to harden. In costing the creams, ong slender sticks will be found very help- fol. Hard wood toothpicks will answer nicely.
