Abstract
  • If it be true that the meaning of desserts is to offer something more exquisite still, then from the hygienic standpoint, the wisdom of the procedure is nil unless it follows as a finishing grace to a simple dinner of meat and vegetables. There is in this department of culinary art, a wide range the compounder of gustatory pleasures, extending from that ponderous dainty known as plum pudding, sent all ablaze in blue light to its destination at the head of the table, to those light, fairy-like dishes where custards, whipped cream and macaroons meet. These seemingly light and innutritious dishes have really a high nutritive value in the milk and eggs which go into their composition. As to the matter of flavoring, the spiritual essence, as it were, of desserts, and almost sixth sense is requisite to attain perfection. It is generally acknowledged that the descendants of the poor half-starved, frozen exiles of Plymouth pock are not as highly gifted in this art as are those of the rich tropical natured colored race whose custards and puddings are reminiscent of gardens of roses,. strawberries, quinces, and orange blossoms.
