CLEANLINESS A NECESSARY FEATURE.

Of all places, a candy shop should be a model of cleanliness. Make this a strict rule and always adhere to it.

Visitors often inspect your kitchen, and of course form opinions. These opinions cannot be creditable to any extent if your place is not neat and tidy. The opinions visitors form on such tours of inspection will do much to build up your trade or tear down your patronage, and make you a reputation. In my mind it is the most essential step toward a successful candymaking business.

Don’t be afraid that your helper will learn candymaking; a good helper—one that takes an interest in his work—will more than repay you for the trouble in teaching him, in the additional help you get out of him.
