Take searsed sugar, and Cinnamon, of quantity alike, work it up with a little Gum Dragon, steepe it in Rose-water, and print it in a mould made like a Walnut shell, then take white sugar plates, print it in a mould made like a Walnut kernel, so when they are both dry, close them up together with a little Gum Dragon betwixt, and they will dry as they lie.
