Open any amount of dates and take out the seeds, and then place in them fresh grated cocoanut; close them up, and when ready dip in chocolate.
These goods are good eaters and sell well.
GINGER CHOCOLATES.
Cut up in fine pieces ½ pound of ginger and knead it in 6 pounds of No. 1 dipping cream to a stiff paste, then roll them out in little balls, and then flatten them out with the forefinger; when done dip in chocolate.
OPERA CREAM DATES.
Open 5 pounds dates and remove the seeds; now make a small batch of Opera Cream as per recipe for same, knead it well, flavor slightly with vanilla, roll in small pieces, and fill dates and finish as ordinary cream dates.
These goods must be made in small batches in hot weather, as Opera Cream soon sours. You will find these goods much richer than the ordinary cream dates.
