Some slight rubbing and wear, minor discoloration, else in very good + condition. Revised American Candy Maker by Charles C. Huling, published in 1908, is an early 20th-century American manual devoted to the craft and trade of confectionery. Intended for professional confectioners as well as ambitious home candy makers, the book presents a wide range of formulas and practical instructions for producing traditional sweets such as caramels, creams, fudges, taffies, bonbons, and chocolate confections. In addition to recipes, Huling provides guidance on the proper handling of sugar, flavorings, and colorings, along with techniques for boiling sugar, working candy on marble slabs, and using the equipment common to confectionery shops of the period. Reflecting the practices of small candy factories and soda fountains during a formative era of American candy production, the work serves as both a practical trade guide and a snapshot of early 20th-century confectionery methods. Provenance: From the library of Dr. William Woys Weaver, acclaimed American food historian and author, acquired directly from his historic home, Roughwood, in Chester County, Pennsylvania.

  2. The very best seller I have encountered on eBay! I plan to do business with Westchester Books again, if they will accept my business. Sadly, I had to return the books I purchased from them, through no fault of theirs. They were patient, responsive, and understanding. If you could choose only one book seller on eBay, Westchester Books is the one you should choose. 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!! Great seller! Fast shipping. Excellent packaging. Great value. I plan to buy again from this seller.
