520 _a"Bettina's best desserts" by Louise Bennett Weaver and Helen Cowles LeCron is a cookbook written in the early 20th century. It presents approachable dessert recipes organized by ingredient and method, with brief household notes and serving tips. Expect clear, step-by-step directions for pies, puddings, cakes, cream puffs, frozen treats, gelatins, and sauces suited to both family meals and “company” occasions. The opening of this collection sets a cheerful, domestic tone with a rhymed foreword and contents list, then moves straight into recipe chapters. It starts with Apple Desserts—cobblers, dumplings, baked apples (with raisins, brown sugar, or marshmallows), puddings, and cakes—each given precise measurements, portions, quick headnotes, and serving suggestions. Subsequent sections sample Apricot, Banana, Blueberry, Cake, and Cherry desserts; instructions for cream puffs, eclairs, and custards; and a substantial Frozen Desserts section that explains hand-freezer technique, packing, and “ripening,” plus sauces for ice cream. The excerpt proceeds through gelatine-based creams, grape‑juice and mixed‑fruit combinations, and orange and peach dishes, concluding mid-recipe with Windsor Peaches.
