Historical transcription

Source method

  1. 1

    Four cupfuls of granulated sugar; one cupful of boiling water; two tablespoonfuls of glucose.

  2. 2

    Stir until mixed and dissolved, then cover, and boil until the syrup strings. Pour into a crock and allow it to stand undisturbed until cool enough for you to hold your finger in it. Stir with a wooden spoon until thick; pour upon a marble slab and knead all lumps out. Work in flavoring and coloring if desired. Mold into balls and press a blanched almond on the top of each ball.

Nutrition pending

No invented nutrition numbers.

WorkLife will publish nutrition and scalable serving quantities only after this historical transcription receives a measured modern adaptation.
