Sending Iced Cake Home
Dear Aunt Daisy, I have sent Home three iced cakes every Christmas since the beginning of the war;'and I also sent them to my son in the Islands during the war, and every one has landed in perfect condition. I always make my white icing with the white of egg, not water or milk, and I generally put just a few drops of rum in the almond icing or nut paste, whichever I can get. I would like to thank you for letting us know how to send butter Home. I have sent it before, but it did not keep quite perfectly, although I sealed the tin, I am sending a parcel now, so will try your way with the flour, "St, Albans." The method referred to is to pack a pound of butter, in its paper as bought from shop, in a tin of flour-pack firmly with 2: or 3 inches of flour all round. Seal as usual.
