Delicious Small Cakes.

Life Is too hard to make lady fingers these busy days. The recipes are very like sponge and angel cakes, only beaten for one or two hours, then put through a forcer. Use sponge cake or cream sponge cake. Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar, bake Ifid put together with sirup, just ready to harden, fondant or icings. Darky fingers are made from chocolate or dark marble-cake batter. Tiny cream-puff shells, with berries or peaches, and whlpped-cream filling, peanuts, cocoanut, almond or plain cookies, cat in long, narrow strips or fancy, are very satisfactory. For rich cakes use pound, gold, sunshine or angel cake, bake In Individual fancy tins, Ice and decorate. You can cut these cakes In squares, rounds or diamonds. With skewers, dip each piece hi frosting. Have mocha, chocolate, pistachio, almond, rose, vanilla, and a cherry or nut on top. Slice one or t one and a half inches thick, very evenly.
