Beat the yolks of the eggs till light, then add the sugar; continue
beating for some time, then add the whites beaten to a stiff froth;
next put in the flour, a little at a time. Bake in a long pan, well
greased; when done turn out on bread-board, then cover the top with
jelly and roll while warm, and slice as needed.--_Mrs. A. H._
_Rolled Jelly Cake._
1 cupful sugar.
1 tablespoonful of butter.
1½ cupful of flour.
2/3 cupful of milk.
1 egg.
Two teaspoonfuls of baking powder sifted with the flour. Bake in a
large sheet, and when done, spread on the jelly and cut the sheets in
strips three or four inches wide and roll up. If instead of jelly a
sauce is made and spread between the layers of cake, it may be eaten
as a cream-pie and furnish a very nice dessert. For the sauce, beat
together one egg, one teaspoonful of corn-starch, or one tablespoonful
flour and two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Stir into a half-pint of milk
and boil until it forms a good custard. Remove from the fire and
flavor with vanilla.--_Mrs. M._
FILLING FOR JELLY CAKE.
Whites of two eggs, beaten to a froth.
2 cupfuls of sugar.
Juice and grated peel of 2 oranges.
Put this between the layers, and on top the cakes.--_Mrs. C. C._
Oranges cut fine, and sweetened and mixed with grated cocoanut, also
chocolate, is used for filling jelly cake. Sponge cake is better than
the soda recipe.--_Mrs. C. C._
MARBLE CAKE.
Weigh and make a pound cake; add a spoonful of yeast, take one-third
part of the batter and add to it two teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, two
teaspoonfuls of mace, one teaspoonful of cloves, one teaspoonful of
nutmeg, finely ground.
Put in your pan, first a layer of the plain batter, then a layer of
the spiced, finishing with the plain. The batter will make three
layers of plain and two of spiced. It bakes in beautiful
layers.--_Mrs. C. L. T._
MARBLE OR SPICED CAKE.
Make up a pound cake and add two teaspoonfuls of yeast-powder. Take

of the plain batter, then the spiced, alternately, till you have it
full, finishing with the plain. Bake as a pound cake.--_Mrs. C. V.
