MORE CHRISTMAS CANDIES,

Now that we have the foundation
made, few suggestions as to the
ways of using it in different varieties:
For orange creams, crate the yellow
rlnd of an orange, scraping every
speck from the crater with a fork;
ad pinch of tartaric the size of a
pea. Add two tablespoonfuls or more
of confectioner's sugar and enough
orange juice to mix, and then make
1t into small balls. These are the
centers which are dipped into melted
fondant tinted yellow with saffron.
Melt the fondant over hot water, being
careful not to melt it back to clear su-
gar.
Walnut creams are very simple.
Roll the favored fondant into balls,
press in the half of walnut, and al
low 1t to dry on waxed paper.
A candy which is most attractive
may be made of different layers, fla
vored with a variety of tinting and
with the addition of chopped nuts and
raisins to one layer. Arrange in lay
ers, in tin box or mold; then, when
hard, the whole piece may be dipped
in chocolate, and when sliced will
make a very pretty addition to the
candy box if the colors pink, green
and layer of plain white is used with
the layer OF chopped nuts and fruit.
Nuggets.-Boil together cupfuI
each of brown and white sugar, a half
cup of water to the soft ball stage.
Pour this in fine stream over the
white of an egg beaten stiff. Continue
beating until it will hold its shape
when dropped; add pinch of soda,
little vanilla and a few nuts when be-
to beat. Drop in small balls
on waxed or buttered paper. They
will harden Immediately.
Glace Nuts.-Boil a pound of sugar
with cup of water until it hairs, then
add half cup of vinegar and boil
rapidly until when tried in ice water
it cracks in the teeth Now continue
to boil until the faintest tinge of yell

One nice thing about bon bons the
foundation may be made and kept for
weeks, without hurting it in the least
and one may then make the French
candy day or two before 1t is wanted
and so have it deliciously fresh.
Fondant for chocolate creams should
be just as soft as possible to handle
and those who know say that if it is
frozen and small bits used quickly
and covered with chocolate we have
the very creamy texture which is so
desirable for the filling of the choco-
late creams. All one needs to do is
to set the fondant out in the cold over
night to freeze.
Fondant.-To insure smooth vel.
vety candy ungrained the addition of a
small amount of glucose added to the
sugar and water will save the need of
careful watching. To four CUPS of
sugar add cup of water and two ta-
blespoonfuls Of glucose. The glucose
may be bought at any confectionery
shop and is perfectly wholesome used

Cook the candy until a little is drop-
ped in cold water it may be gathered
in the fingers into a soft waxy ball.
The softer the candy can be worked
the more delicate the candy 1t should
be kept covered with buttered pa
per in close dish or jar. When the
candy is cool enough to bear dipping
in finger, begin to stir and stir until
a white waxy mass as smooth as vel
vet is the result. Use what is needed
for the time and put the remainder
away for the future.
For chocolate creams have the fon-
dant very cold and handle quickly so
that it does not melt and spoil the
shape. Mold into balls and set out
again to chill. When thoroughly cold
dip them into melted chocolate. Put
piece of chocolate into small sauce
pan and set it into hot water. A hat
pin or wire with small loon in
the end is good to use for dipping the
bon bons. Drain on waxed paper and
put at once in cold place.
