Rose Leaves Candied
Take red roses, remove all the whites at the bottom. Take three times their weight in sugar, put a pint of water to a pint of roses, skin well, shred the roses a little before you put them into the water, and cover them, and when the leaves are tender, put in the sugar.
Keep stirring lest they burn and the syrup be consumed.
Delicious Fudge
Delicious fudge is made with sour cream instead of fresh milk or cream.
Taffy
| 2 lbs. brown sugar 1 tablespoon butter 1 tablespoon golden syrup ¾ cup water 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 tablespoon white vinegar |
Mix well and allow it to boil slowly. Skim but do not stir. Boil until a little hardens in water. Then add the vanilla and vinegar.
Now pour into buttered tins and when the edges harden, draw lightly to the center. When cool pull until light. When doing so flour the hands lightly.
