Then come 24 recipes for “Boiled sugar sweets and caramels”, (Strawberry lollipops, Mint pastilles, Hard salted caramels), “Fruit and flower sweets” (Cherry marshmallows, apple chips, Crystallised flowers, Raspberry jellies etc.), “Dried fruit sweets” (White nougats, Pralines, Almond paste), and “Chocolate sweets” (Chocolate bar with puffed cereals).
