Rosseline Bomb Bombe à la Rosseline Take one quart of single cream, and mix with it six ounces of castor sugar, eight tablespoonfuls of rose-water, a large tablespoonful of vanilla essence, one tablespoonful of Maraschino liqueur, and a large wineglass of Silver Rays (white) rum; mix well together and freeze it in the charged freezer to the consistency of a thick batter, then add to it half a pound of preserved uncrystallised cherries cut up into very small pieces, and two ounces of blanched, peeled sweet almonds cut up in little dice shapes, and baked till brown; put the mixture into a bomb mould and leave it in the charged ice cave for three and a half hours, during which time occasionally turn the mould so that the contents may be evenly frozen; then turn out the bomb on to a dish on a paper; garnish with crystallised cherries that are masked with boiled sugar (see recipe), blanched pistachio nuts and spun sugar (see recipe), and serve at once. Have some George's Cheltenham Wafers arranged on a dish on a fancy dish-paper, and hand them with the ice.
