M lean's Homemade Candu Is the Envu of Her Friends; Here's How She Makes It "Whenever we have club at your house, Jean, you serve the loveliest and roost delicious candies. Do you really make them all yourself?" "Yes, I do. I really like them and I do so enjoy making candy." The bridge tables were preoc cupied, but not so much as to pre sent comments on the ever wel come candy. Jean was an excel lent cook, and she certainly could make wonderful candies. "I've tried lots of recipes, but my candles never taste like yours. Won't you give us the secret to tho richness of yours?" "Why, of course. It's really so simple. I just use recipes calling far evnporated milk and follow l(?m carefully. You sec, evap orated milk is so much richer than ordinary milk that I can have delicious candy around most of the time. My family prefers It to any randy they can buy. You are wel come to any of my recipes that 7on wish."
