Ingredients
- eight pounds fine white sugar into a pan
- one tea- spoonful of cream of tartar
Directions
Put eight pounds fine white sugar into a pan, and add one tea- spoonful of cream of tartar; pour over enough water to dissolve it. Melt in water a little Prussian blue, to color the sugar blue- white ; pour into the above and boil till done. Then pour it on a marble-top stand that has been well oiled ; turn the edg&= over into the middle, and form into the shape of a ball; fasten it to a hook driven into the wall; pull candy toward you, throwing it on the hook each time ; continue until perfectly white ; then pull out into a long roll, and cut into sticks the required length. Flavor with vanilla. — Philip Nippert.
