ENGLISH PUDDINGS AND CAKES GO ALL OVER THE WORLD. Strange as It May Seem, There Is a Fashion In the Manufacture of Wedding Cakes. A Glance at the luterlor of a Bis; Cake Store Cake of Many Kind. Christmas cakes, New Year's cakes. Twelfth cakes, christening cakes, birthday cakes and wedding cakes all come of the same wealthy family that Is to say, they are as rich as rich can be, A high author ity upon the whole subject chatted a day or two ago about them. It was a painfully appetizing conversation, for it took place in a showroom of palatial proportions in which were to be seen specimens of every kind of cake which mankind has invented for social consumption. A cake, it must be premised, cannot be eaten in strict seclu sion. It must be enjoyed in pleasant com pany or it becomes indigest ible, and with out a cake the Christmas board would be incomplete. "We sell thousands of Christmas cakes," said the gentleman whose firm has prob ably produced more cakes of every variety than any one house in the world. "They closely resemble the wedding cake, which is a recognized institution. By the way, I think wedding cakes are getting larger and heavier, and certainly the sugar work orna mentation is more elaborate and artistically executed. Necessarily the decoration must be in white and silver, but sometimes real hothouse flowers are used to adorn the cake." "What is the largest size wedding cake?" "We sell some weighing five hundred weight or six hundredweight, and the largest for royalties has been about ten hundredweight. A saw edged knife is sup plied lor tlie ceremony 01 cutting the cake,' which is frequently done, however, in ad vance, and a silver trowel is used by the bride to withdraw the segment easily." On all sides were weddincr cakes on shelves, some of them with a light deposit of almond ic?r.g upon tfceir top3. TLcy were all ordered fur forthcoming marriages. "The icing,'' remarked the guide, "is done as required. A very large cake is baked in sections and afterward fitted to gether. That man there is busy cutting smaller cakes in halves, for you can never tell from the outside appearance whether the cake is thoroughly well baked inside. We therefore test every one." "Now what is the real difference between a wedding cake and a Christmas plum cake?'' ' "It is generally in the ornamentation. The top of a Christmas cake is coated with sugar icing and picked out wit h colors say pink and there is also an inscription. A Father Christmas stands in the center, and there are small fancy ornaments around the figure. Some, too, have holly on the top, but people now and then prefer sweet meats instead." "And you say that there is a grt-nt de mand for them?" "We send them all over the world. We occasionally export cakes and puddings to people abroad sufficient to last them the whole year round. They go to India, Af rica, China, Egypt in fact, everywhere. A New Year's cake is similar t o a lhrifnias cake, with fancy decoration ii.iu f.'i.ivs." "Do you find that Twelfth rake ;.re de clining in popularity?" "Well, perhaps we do not s: II t i.iti- so many. They are as yon know li;c.;; ted with figures, and a sheet of characurs a d conundrums accompanies each cr.ke, ac cording to the old custom. They are drawn for." "Is the plan still followed of embedding various articles in the cake?" "Yes, that is still done. People bring us rings, coins and buttons to put in the cake. In fact, we have inclosed in the cake gold watches and diamond rings. But it has generally been arranged beforehand where they should cut for such a prize a little rosette or colored ribbon in the decoration would be a sufficient guide." Conversation then turned upon school cakes, which are as full of currants and sultanas as can be desired. But for peo ple of maturer years the fashion in cakes, except, on festivul occasions, when the rule may be broken through, runs upon a light er and most digestible cake. Here in the neat cardboard boxes are piles of Dundee cakes, made of butter, flour and eggs, and better than a dough cake of the schoolboy kind. A Dundee cake has its due propor tion of sultanas and peel, and it is rather richer in quality than the popular Scotch Madeira. There are other varieties of light pound c:ikes, such as seed and almond, and if the ta.ie inclines to a heavier article currant c&ke in various degrees of richness can be had, and it is remarkable how con servative successive generations are in their liking for good substantial cake. Before-glancing at a few of the astonish ing array of del icacies in the way of biscuits, attention is attracted to a huge store of plum puddings. Kacb pudding is in its own neat white basin and securely tied up in its cloth. "We are making 17,000 this year," says the gentleman who is acting as guide through this palace of dainties. "A great many are sent abroad. They are dispatched in tin lined cases, sometimes thirty to forty in a case." "But can you tell me who it is who buys your puddings?" "Regular cust omcrs come year after year, for twenty or more at a time, to give away as Christmas presents. Most army officers, and those of the navy, too, want puddings. The puddings which are sent abroad are not packed in basins, but in cloths, for they travel better. The puddings in these basins are for home consumption. They are ready boiled." "And are of ail sizes?" "The largest pudding costs, say, ten guin eas, and it would be suflicient for 500 or 600 men." London Telegraph. Bow He Made Them Talk. A youth on a bicycle trip through the Nutmeg State frequently had occasion to ask directions about the roads, etc Three or four when asked how far a certain town was simply stood with their mouths agape and said not a word. The young fellow finally became exasperated and hit upon a plan "to make the next person he met answer him. So, when he overtook a farmer on a load of hay and, putting the question, receiving no reply, he put tip his hands and began wiggling his fingers as though talking in the deaf and dumb sign language, The old farmer couldn't stand this imputation that he was a mute and quickly gave full directions, New York Press. .
