This recipe was extracted from Modern cookery, in all its branches (1884) by Eliza Acton, page 473. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

ORANGE-FLOWER MACAROONS. (DELICIOUS.) Have ready two pounds of very dry white sifted sugar. Weigh two ounces of* the petals of freshly gathered orange-blossoms after they have been picked from the stems ; and cut them very small with a pair of scissors into the sugar, as they will become discoloured if not mixed with it quickly after they are cut. When all are done, add the whites of seven eggs
