Thank you, Jan Cedar Crest Restaurant Rice Pudding From: Patti Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2015 3:31 PM To: phaedrus@hungrybrowser.com Subject: Cedar Crest Rice Pudding Hi Uncle P, I am looking for the Rice Pudding recipe from the Cedar Crest Restaurant that was located on Route 28 in Lawrence, MA from the 1930s until 2009 when it closed it's doors. The pudding was creamy and yellow in color and came with a dollop of whipped cream. I have tried several recipes but cannot recreate the taste or texture. Thanks for your help! Patti Hello Patti, Sorry, I had no success with this. I found several mentions of the Cedar Crest Restaurant in Lawrence, but no mention of the rice pudding. I will post this for reader input. Phaed Woolworth's Cupcakes -----Original Message----- From: Rhonda Sent: Friday, September 04, 2015 8:10 PM To: phaedrus@hungrybrowser.com Subject: recipe find? Hi there - my name is Rhonda. I grew up in Saint John, New Brunswick Canada mostly in the 70 and early 80s. We had a Woolworth’s in our downtown — very much like many of the descriptions of Woolworths in other communities. My mother often took us to the lunch counter but the offerings of the bakery stand out most in my mind. I’ve found recipes for their famous German chocolate cake but despite numerous web searches using as many word combos as I could think of, I can find no mention of their cupcakes. Our Woolworth sold the same collection of cupcakes every day for as long as I could remember until the store finally closed. In particular … I remember the White cupcakes with a white coconut frosting (it had a maraschino cherry slice on top). The White and chocolate cupcakes with a chocolate icing and my absolute favourite white cupcakes with a maple walnut icing. No where before or since have I found such cupcakes and I think of them still! Any ideas as to how I might go about tracking the recipes down???? Rhonda Hello Rhonda, I can't offer you much hope. I have been searching for any and all Woolworth's recipes for fifteen years. There are very few to be found on the Internet, and the cupcakes recipe is not among them. One of my readers has a copy of the actual Woolworth's recipe manual, and he was good enough to scan in the recipe pages and send them to me, so I have quite a few Woolworth's recipes that I have not as yet posted due to not receiving requests for them. However, almost all of the dessert section, including the cupcakes recipe, is missing. I'll post this for reader input. Phaed
