Weekend Cooking - Victory in Europe July 1945
Amongst my Grandmother's belongs was this little cookbook in making cakes and icing. I don't know if she ever used the recipes or if she had numbers 1-65.

I love the old cookbooks from the 1930s and 1940s. I hope you'll share a recipe or two.

ReplyDeleteAwesome find. I love that so many of the titles make reference to the war. Yes, do share a recipe or two.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to find something that your grandmother obviously used and kept...I too would be curious to see a recipe or two.
ReplyDeleteNeat. I like the measurement in 'dessertspoonsful.' That would be interesting to try to reinterpret today.

Those would be interesting recipes to try. I was surprised to see the soya flour in the almond paste.
