- _All your baking can be perfect_
-
-
- [Illustration: _Velvet-soft and velvet-fine—every cake_]
-
-What makes a perfect cake? Even rising? Tender brown crust? Delicate
-flavor and fragrance? All these qualities and one more—the fine, moist,
-tender texture that is hard to describe by any word except “velvety”!
-
-“Velvety crumb”—that is the expression cake judges use in speaking of
-the beautiful texture of cakes leavened by Calumet, the Double-Acting
-Baking Powder.
-
-See it in this close-up picture of a slice of Calumet cake! Then make
-any cake in this book—cut a slice and feel a crumb between thumb and
-finger. Soft as velvet! Touch the cut surface. So moist and springy! Now
-taste a morsel of the cake. Velvet-fine—velvet-smooth!
-
-Every Calumet cake, plain cake or party cake, dark or light or
-golden-yellow, has this same lovely texture—thanks to Calumet’s
-dependable Double-Action. Use the recipes in this book, following
-Calumet’s thrifty proportion with care, and all your cakes will be
-perfect—the envy and admiration of your friends!
-
- [Illustration: _Light, tender, golden brown—every biscuit_]
-
-What makes a perfect biscuit? A little flaky, crusty morsel—and pass the
-plate often—that’s the South’s perfect biscuit, while a Yankee biscuit
-is fluffy and high as your Grandmother’s comforter. Westerners like
-sugar and spice.... New Yorkers have a fondness for the old-world flavor
-of cheese.
-
-But thick or thin, sweet or tangy, the best biscuits the country over
-are light and tender biscuits—perfectly leavened biscuits.
-
-Calumet, the modern Double-Acting Baking Powder, will show you the way
-to biscuits light as air, delicately brown and tender. And on pages 19
-to 20 are tested Calumet recipes, based on Calumet’s marvelously
-economical proportion, for any type of biscuit you prefer to make and
-serve.
-
-There is an extra touch of perfection in every quick bread made with
-Calumet. Muffins are tender, evenly risen, free from humps and from
-tunnels. Waffles, griddle cakes, cookies, gingerbread, all owe a new
-quality and sureness to Calumet’s Double-Action. Read on and see just
-how it works!
-
-
-
-
- CALUMET’S DOUBLE-ACTION
- _What it means to your baking!_
-
-
- First Action
-
- [Illustration: _Just enough leavening in the mixing bowl_]
-
-See Calumet’s First Action. It begins in the mixing bowl when you add
-liquid (milk, water, or eggs) to the dry ingredients. The instant liquid
-is added, things begin to happen. Thousands of tiny gas bubbles surge
-through the batter, making it light and spongy and ready for baking.
-BUT—only part of Calumet’s leavening gas is released in the mixing
-bowl....
-
-
- Second Action
-
- [Illustration: _—just enough leavening in the oven_]
-
-Calumet’s Second Action is released by heat. See what happens in the
-oven. Steadily, evenly, hundreds of new tiny bubbles swell through the
-batter and continue the leavening. Up! ... up! ... they keep raising the
-batter and hold it high and light. Thanks to these two scientifically
-balanced actions, Calumet Baking Powder protects your baking from start
-to finish.
-
-
-Baking powder is a small part of any given recipe, yet it plays such an
-important role that it is often called “the biggest little thing in
-baking”. Too much or too little baking powder or baking powder that is
-not efficient ... what a lot of baking trouble that can cause! Humped,
-uneven cakes ... dry, harsh, coarse-grained cakes ... even flat
-failures!
-
-Calumet’s two leavening actions are perfectly timed and balanced to give
-maximum protection and superb quality to all your baking. A little of
-this Double-Acting Calumet does a superfine job—and this means extra
-economy for Calumet users. The usual Calumet proportion is 1 level
-teaspoon per cup of sifted flour. This amount is only one-half to
-two-thirds the amount recommended for many other baking powders.
-
-Most of the recipes in this book call for this proportion. In some
-recipes, however, the number of eggs, the type of flour, or the nature
-of other ingredients make advisable slightly more or slightly less. But
-every recipe has been tested again and again and has been carefully
-built with exactly the right proportions to give you the full advantage
-of Calumet’s Double-Action. Follow these recipes accurately, faithfully,
-and rejoice in the efficiency and economy of Calumet.
-
-
-
-
- _Such a comfort to busy women!_
- CALUMET BATTERS CAN WAIT
-
-
- [Illustration: _Mix batter ... wrap tightly_]
-
- [Illustration: _Store in a cold place_]
-
- [Illustration: _Bake when you please ... without last minute
- bustle_]
-
-Cake Batter on hand in the icebox! Muffin batter! Cooky dough! Ready to
-slip into the oven and bake whenever you want them.
-
-Fresh, hot, good things for dinner without the fuss and flurry of last
-minute mixing! Three or four hot desserts for week-end meals from one
-batter mixing! No more cake failures because of ringing doorbells and
-children’s demands just when a batter is ready for the oven.
-
-Calumet batters can wait—for moments or for days! This is another
-wonderful advantage that Calumet’s Double-Action brings you. For even
-when you store cake batter for days, you can count on perfect lightness
-when you bake it.
-
-If baking is to be delayed only an hour or so, slip the bowl or pan of
-batter into the refrigerator. To store longer, follow directions below.
-Turn to page 11 for a large quantity cake recipe that will give you
-batter for three quick desserts—a real Miracle Cake.
-
-1. Mix Calumet batter, pour in pan; cover tightly, first with a damp
- cloth, and then with waxed paper. Tie securely.
-
-2. Store batter in a cold place until you are ready to bake. Calumet’s
- second action will be held in reserve until the batter reaches the
- heat of the oven.
-
-3. Unwrap pans and bake as usual. Results will be perfect—delicately
- light, tender, fine and velvety in texture. How delightful to
- serve things fresh-baked—hot—delicious, without one bit of
- last-minute fuss and flurry ... thanks to Calumet’s remarkable
- Double-Action.
-
-
-
-
- REMEMBER THESE POINTS
- _whenever you bake._
-
-
- [Illustration: _Sift flour before measuring—fill cup lightly_]
-
- [Illustration: _Measure baking powder exactly—a level teaspoon_]
-
-_Do_ be orderly. Plan your baking before you start. Choose your recipe,
- read it through carefully, understand it clearly. Collect all the
- ingredients specified, and arrange them in the order called for in
- the recipe; assemble all the utensils needed on your work table.
- Cultivate the do-it-right habit.
-
-_Do_ use good ingredients. You can’t do first-rate baking with
- second-rate materials. Use fresh, sweet shortening and eggs of
- fine quality. Use fine granulated sugar, unless some other kind is
- called for in your recipe. Remember that baking powder and flour
- are the most important ingredients in baking. Give yourself the
- protection and advantages of Calumet, the Double-Acting Baking
- Powder ... and of Swans Down Cake Flour, too, whenever the recipe
- calls for it. It gives to cakes and to certain quick breads a
- fineness and lightness that you cannot expect from ordinary flour.
-
-_Don’t_ use more Calumet than the recipes call for. Calumet’s
- Double-Action gives it extra efficiency—less of its leavening gas
- is lost from the surface of batters during mixing. Thousands of
- tests have proved that the small amounts of Calumet Baking Powder
- specified in these recipes will give you best results. One level
- teaspoon of Calumet to a cup of sifted flour is the correct
- proportion for most recipes. In some recipes the nature of the
- ingredients makes advisable slightly more or slightly less.
-
-
-
-
- THESE ARE BASIC RULES
- _for surest, best results_!
-
-
- [Illustration: _A bit of care brings results in preparing pans_]
-
- [Illustration: _Watch your baking temperatures—finally, test the
- cake_]
-
-_Do_ measure all ingredients accurately with standard measuring cups and
- standard measuring spoons. A standard measuring cup is an accurate
- half-pint measure—the equivalent of 16 level tablespoons. It is
- grooved on one side to read ¼, ½, and ¾; on the other, to read ⅓
- and ⅔. A standard tablespoon is equivalent to 3 standard
- teaspoons. Always sift flour once before measuring, and remember
- that all standard measurements are _level_.
-
-_Do_ mix carefully. Follow exactly the mixing directions given in each
- recipe. The way you combine and handle your ingredients is
- important.
-
-_Do_ use the type and size of pans specified in the recipes, and prepare
- your pans before mixing. A greased paper lining in pans for large
- butter cakes gives added protection.
-
-_Do_ handle cakes carefully, after baking. Place butter cake and pan on
- cake rack, for about 5 minutes; then remove from pan, and turn
- cake, top side up, on rack to finish cooling. For sponge cakes,
- follow directions given in recipes.
-
-_Don’t_ guess about your baking temperatures. If your stove does not
- have an oven heat regulator, use a portable thermometer. It does
- not control heat, but it does tell you when to adjust the baking
- temperature.

-should mix a white cake one way and a chocolate cake another. How to
-make biscuits flaky, waffles tender, muffins without tunnels. How and
-when to remove cakes from pans. Tricks in making perfect pie crust,
-never-fail frostings and meringues.
-

-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future

-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
