This recipe was extracted from Foods, their selection and preparation (1935) by Louise Stanley, page 33. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Large crystals are obtained by use of sucrose sirups of low concentration. The crystals are allowed to form slowly until the desired size is obtained. Cream candies
