FRUIT PUDDING.
5 pounds glucose,
3 pounds sugar,
1 pound small seedless raisins,
1 pound package of good mincemeat,
Water enough to dissolve the batch.
Stir and cook to 252°; set off the fire and add 2 pounds of mixed shelled nuts, 1 pound pineapple, cherries and citron, and all the fine powdered cocoanut you can possibly mix in; pour off on the slab and form it in a loaf like bread; now put in clean kettle 3 pounds glucose, 1 pound sugar, a little water, and cook as before to 252°; set off the fire, and add all the cocoanut it will stand; pour on the slab, flatten out thin with rolling-pin and fold it around the loaf you have just made until it is entirely covered; when cold cut in slices like cake.
