clean,
First of all, assemble neces•
sary tools for a candy making
spree. Otherwise you'll scram
ble around for a spoon or a
platter during an inopportune
tame,.
You'll need a 2-quart sauce-
pan, wooden spoons for the
beating, measuring cups, spat-
ula, cup and spoon to make
the cold water tests, metal
bakbeg sheet and pans and
waxed paper.
A candy thermometer takes
the guesswork out of candy
making but good results can
be obtained by following a few
simple rules,
When making the cold water
test to determine whether or
not the candy is done, remove
pan from heat, Get small drops
of the mixture fall from sperm
into a cup of cold water, For
soft ball stage needed when
mektnag fudge, fondant or
pa.noche, the mixture will flat-
ten on removal from water.
FIRM BALL STAGE—holds
its shape upon removal from
cold water.
HARD BALL STAGE—plastic
and chewy upon removal from
cold water.
CRACK STAGE — separates
into heavy threads in cold
water; plastic and bends upon
removal.
HARD CRACK—threads and
is bard and brittle on removal
from water,
Do not stir or shake pan
while cooking candy and when
it is „done set it aside to be•
come" lukewarm before beat-
ing.
Follow these rules, measure

can't go wrong in candy mak-
ing,

travellers,
Wrap cookies in pairs in foil

tween, and then arrange layers

seine popcorn into the crevices
to keep cookies from jiggling,
Repeat layers to within ae-inch
of the top of the box and fill

don't forget to mark "Fragile"
or "Perishable" on the box,
