Ice cake the day after it is baked. The

cupfuls of granulated sugar and cook with
one cupful of water, without stirring, un-
til the mixture when dropped into cold water

mass until cool. Add two teaspoonfuls OF
almond extract and pour the cake.
other icing should be put using the whites
of three eggs to three-quarters of pound of
pulverized sugar. Be sure to see there are
no Jumps in it. Beat the whites of the
eggs and a tablespoonful Of sugar for three
minutes, continue to add tablespoonful of
sugar at a time, beating same length of
time until all the sugar has been used AS
\ the mixture begins to get thick, add three
teaspoonfulS of vanilla extract. The idea is
to thicken mixture by continued beating.
Be sure to spread the icing evenly over the
cake.
There are many ways of ornamenting the
cake. One way is to make of stiff
brown paper large enough to allow the
icing to flow through. With one hand twist
cone above mixture, guide the lower part of
cone with left hand, and force out the mix
ture by pressure and twisting with right
hand. In this way you can decorate top OF
cake, tracing wavy lines, scrolls, ETC., and
finish with artificial sugar roses and leaves,
which can be procured at any confectioner's.

froth, and add little by little a teacup of
granulated sugar. Lay some white paper

the mixture with a large spoon. Set pan in
top of oven, leaving door open. In about
thirty minutes these can be set around edge
of cake, which should be allowed to stand
in a warm room until the icing is dry.
