For School Lunches
Last winter you published in The Listener a page of recipes for eggless cakes, and among them was one for a fruit cake in which the fruit, butter. sugar and water were heated in a saucepan before mixing with the other ingredients. As I have unfortunately lost the recipe, I wonder if you could have it reprinted in The Listener. This cake was of good texture, an excellent keeper and ideal for school ‘lunches, as well as a boon when eggs are so scarce and dear. "Mother of Four Boys." Here is the recipe: One breakfast cup sugar, 2 breakfast cups fruit (raisins | currants and sultanas), 1 breakfast cur cold water, %4 Ib. butter. Put all in saucepan, and Slowly bring to the boil. Simmer gently 3 minutes, let get cold. Two cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking»soda sifted together and added to the mix-. ture. Stir well, Line tin with greased paper, moderate oven. Cook for one and a half to two hours. Cake is moist, and should keep for weeks.
