OUR SWEET MAKING CORNER.
GINGER CREAMS. Tf yen want some sweets in a hurry, make some ginger creams! Get one pound of icing sugar, one fiesh egg, and a little preserved ginger. Cut the ginger up into nice little square cubes. Now put the white of the egg in a basin, stir it, and into this sift the rolled ieing sugar. Mix till it becomes a thick paste which does not stick to the fingers. A drop of warm water may be added if the paste is too thick. Colour pink with cochineal. Sift icing sugar on a board, and roll the cream out till it is a little thicker than a penny; then cut it in even squares about an inch and a half wide.
Put a ginger cube in the middle of each square, turn the corners up over the ginger, and leave to dry. With a little care these sweets can be made to look quite professional, and one well-shaped sweet Is worth two carelessly-made once!
