ICE-CREAM AND CAKES

A NEW COLLECTION OF STANDARD FRESH AND ORIGINAL RECEIPTS FOR HOUSEHOLD AND COMMERCIAL USE. ———— =By AN AMERICAN= ———— _=1 Vol., 12mo, - - Price, $1.50.=_ ————

Fond as Americans are of Ice-Cream and Ices, there has never been a book giving directions for the preparation of the various forms of iced dainties, some of which are quite unknown in this country, or are only procurable from the best confectioners of our large cities. This book contains the fruit of many years’ experience and experiment, together with a description of the processes followed by the great French and Italian confectioners.

More than a hundred different receipts for Ice-Creams and Water Ices are given, with rules for preparing all the various flavorings. The directions are both minute and systematic, and being the production of a person of education and refinement, specially qualified for the task, the work will be found to be thoroughly accurate and complete in all points. Any capable housewife, with the resources of a well-equipped kitchen, will be able to follow the directions given, without difficulty and with certainty of success.

Extreme care has been taken to avoid ambiguity and looseness of statement, the exact amount of an ingredient is always stated, so that the most inexperienced cannot go astray. _The various utensils necessary are described, and full advice given as to their use._
