Proper dinners mean so much—good blood, good health, good judgment, good conduct. The fact makes tragic a truth too little regarded; namely, that while bad cooking can ruin the very best of raw foodstuffs, all the arts of all the cooks in the world can do no more than palliate things stale, flat and unprofitable. To buy such things is waste, instead of econ­ omy. Food must satisfy the palate else it will never truly satisfy the stomach. 9 10 An unsatisfied stomach, or one overworked by having to wrestle with food which has bulk out of all proportion to flavor, too often makes its vengeful protest in dyspep­ sia.

  • The Art of Confectionery
    The Art of Confectionery Ivan Day (Part of this essay was used in the exhibition catalogue The Pleasures of the Table by Peter Brown and Ivan Day (York Civic Trust) © Ivan Day Introduction In the eighteenth century, the confectioner was the most highly regarded of all tradesmen involved in the preparation of food. His skills were considered to be of a more elevated order than those of a mere cook or baker and if he was successful in his craft he could command not only impressive financial rewards, but a respectable social standing usually denied to other food professionals. Some confectioners found employment in the households of the aristocracy. Others ran their own shops in the cities and large towns and sold a remarkable variety of sweetmeats, biscuits and ices, as well as the elaborate table furnishings necessary for the lavish entertainments of the rococo age. The range of luxury food items available from these outlets, can be seen from the announcement on the trade card of Domenico Negri, a particularly successful Italian confectioner who traded from the sign of the Pot and Pineapple in Berkeley Square in the 1760’s: “all Sorts of English, French and Italian wet and dry’d Sweet Meats, Cedrati and Bergamot Chips, Naples Diavolini and Diavolini, All sorts of Biskets & Cakes, fine and Common Sugar Plums, Syrup of Capilaire, Orgeate and Marsh Mallow, Ghimauve or Lozenges for Colds & Cough, All Sorts of Ice, Fruits, & Creams in the best Italian manner, Likewise furnishes Entertainments in Fashions, Sells all sorts of Desarts, Flower-frames & Glass-work at the Lowest Price”.1 These exclusive items were not just available in the capital.
