Little Cups with Coffee and Strawberry Ices
Petites Tasses aux Glaces de Café et Fraises
Prepare some Coffee Custard and Strawberry Custard (‘ Book of Ices,’ pp. 13 and 22), freeze the coffee ice in the charged ice machine till dry, and put it in a charlotte mould in the charged ice cave till wanted. Freeze the strawberry custard, and with it fill some little fancy moulds; put these in the charged ice cave for about one and a half hours, then turn out the shapes in the usual way on to a cloth. Prepare some ice-water cups (see recipe), and partly fill them with the coffee ice; then place in each one of the little shapes of strawberry ice, and arrange them on a dish on a paper, garnishing each cup with a tiny sprig of maidenhair fair. Serve for dinner or for dessert, &c.
