Washing Battenberg.

We so often hear people complain of how hard it is to wash battenberg. Now I have had my battenberg dollies for over six years and they look like new. Wash them in a good suds made of white soap, rinse out into several waters, starch with very thin starch, then place a sheet on the floor, pin your battenberg dollies on this, being careful to pin the points firmly, when dry take piece of cheese cloth, put over your doilies as they lay on the floor, then press with a hot iron. Your doilies will look like new and keep for years.
