[Sca-cooks] Fruit Paste...

[Sue Clemenger]

Sorry, but when I did fruit pastes, I poured the fruit sludge/stuff into
plastic-wrap lined cookie sheets that had a good lip on them, almost like a
jelly-roll pan.
I've long wished I had access to some of the boxes and stamps mentioned in
period literature! ;o)
