Ellen Terry Melon
Melon à l'Ellen Terry
Prepare a melon and apple ice as below for this dish, then line a melon mould with the melon ice, and fill up the centre with the apple ice. Close up the mould and place it in the charged ice cave for three and a half to four hours, during which time occasionally turn it; when ready to serve turn out the ice in the usual way on to a clean dry cloth. Dish it up on a meringue border prepared as below, garnish it with spun sugar (see recipe), sprinkle it with coloured sugar, and serve at once. This can be served for a dinner or dessert ice as liked.
