About this book

"This study of the ingenuity of sugar-boiling and the manufacture of those intriguing avatars of childhood happiness, the humbug, gobstopper, peardrop and stick of rock is now republished in paperback. As well as a history, it is also a recipe book, with twenty tried and tested methods for sweets ancient and modern."--BOOK JACKET.
