SEA WAVE CANDY

SEA WAVE CANDY...

...A business suggestion: if you are so inclined, you could make sufficient quantities at home, package in tins with ribbons and sell on the internet for the holidays? Combine with some of the other confections before this posting? (No guarantees are offered.)...

1 & 1/2 cups brown sugar
2 teaspoonfuls vinegar
1/2 cup cold water
3/4 cup chopped nut meats
1 egg white
1 teaspoonful lemon extract

Put the brown sugar, vinegar and water in a saucepan and boil until it reaches 250° F, or until it forms a hard ball when tested in cold water. Remove from fire and immediately pour into the stiffly beaten egg white, continue the beating until the mixture holds its shape, then add chopped nut meats and flavorings and drop teaspoonfuls on buttered pans.
