How shall we use our sweet substitutes our camouflage sugar to the best advantage in cooking? Here are a few simple rules to remember in utilizing the sirups and sweet frultaj 10 replace sugar.

In using maple Sugar in recipes allow the same amount as for white sugar. Maple sirup is less sweet than sugar and in recipes the amount substituted for sugar should be Increased one-half while the liquid required by the original recipe may be decreased by half. The same rule holds for using corn sirup, and extra flavoring should be added to relieve the flat taste. Corn sirup combines best with fruit and spices. In cakes and cook ies substitute corn sirup for half the i sugar.

In using molasses the usual allowance uiuai innuv lur ueiTena- lng liquid and soda should be used in the receipe Instead of baking powder. Where honey Is substituted it is equal in sweetness to sugar and requires a reduction of the usual liquid used by one-fourth. One teaspoonful of soda used with each cupful of honey improves the flavor.
