Out of Date
Dear Aunt Daisy, Just a few lines about the Jelly Filling for a Sponge Cake. I often make this-it is a very simple yet lovely filling. But setting the jelly in a tin the size of the cake is out of date. This is the modern way-and the filling is much nicer. For a three-egg Arrowroot Sponge,
I use half a packet of jelly. Make it in the usual way, and leave it till nearly set. Then, while it is still wobbly, give it three or four good rounds with the egg beater; then spread it on the sponge and leave overnight before cutting. It turns out perfect, and very clear.
-"Wanganui."
"Flora" of Linwood, writes: "Set the jelly in the usual way-using fruit juice if liked, to make it nicer-and when it is just set, beat it up, or stir well with a fork, and spread it evenly to whatever thickness desired, on the cold cake. Press the top half on, and leave for some hours before cutting. I learned this tip from a friend in a bakehouse."
