It misses you too!<br />@Becky: Love that story! And especially the way your mother "customized" all of the recipes to her liking. I love the idea of a bake-off between Fannie and Raumbauer.<br />@Anthony: This was pretty tasty, but I next time I would find a more "modern" recipe for the custard (something a bit more rich and eggy) and the chocolate glaze.<br />@Margaret: funny! There is something so lovely about custard, isn't there.<br />@Anonymous: I recently came across a confetti cake recipe, but can't recall at the moment where. I'll look this weekend for it and post if I find it.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692999404326628908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-91557779920361590262010-04-01T11:50:22.188-04:002010-04-01T11:50:22.188-04:00does anyone know where i can find old presto cake ...does anyone know where i can find old presto cake box recipes....my grandmother use to make one in the 50s or 60s called confetti cake and we are trying to find the recipe? any ideas?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-82180617596957314232010-03-31T08:12:19.102-04:002010-03-31T08:12:19.102-04:00You had me at the word "custard"...You had me at the word "custard"...Margaretnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-7578726056796015792010-03-30T09:36:40.495-04:002010-03-30T09:36:40.495-04:00This looks amazing!

She used to call it "Fannie", as in, "Let's see what Fannie has to say about that." The Joy of Cooking was "Rombauer": "Rombauer says two eggs; Fannie says three. Hmmm..." Mum made all the recipes her own, though. You could tell her favorites, as nearly every amount or ingredient was crossed out and changed to her liking! Starting at about age 10, I used to regularly make the chocolate bread pudding from "Fannie". My brother adored it. Now his wife makes it, and we just had it for his birthday dinner night before last, when we reminisced about that old cookbook!Beckynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279311869237231755.post-61847806889553043682010-03-29T09:05:26.758-04:002010-03-29T09:05:26.758-04:00Oh, I am so "homesick" for the 7th Avenu...Oh, I am so "homesick" for the 7th Avenue Donut Shop!
