Thank you for posting this. I will add this to my pulled-sugar-msg
file. This is the earliest date I have for this.
In looking though my file again, I note that Johnnae's original post
*is* already in there. In fact, it is the message that started things
off. It definitely looks like pulled sugar, even without Brighid's
addition here is period. I think the point of contention was whether
some of the other techniques such as sugar blowing and spun sugar was
period or not. I guess in my mind I was lumping all of these as
"pulled sugar" which they aren't, although they all deal with
manipulating sugar in it's semi-molten state.
Almost every time an old subject is brought up, new material also
magically appears. :-)
