ELECTION DAY CAKE REVIVES INTEREST IN EAHLY CONTESTS Though torchlight parades may now be relegated to elections past, one phase of those old-fashioned political contests is enjoying a bipartisan reviVal. That's the election day cake enjoyed by Democrats and Whigs alike when it was first introduced in . the late 1700s and now-being eaten by both Democrats and Republicans as the campaigns gain momentum. It is, of course, almost impossible to pick out the original election day cake as one contemporary cook book might list as many as eleven different recipes. The one salient feature common to all seems to hava been a cake made with yeast having a consistency between fruit cake and nut bread. One recipe found in the Yankee cookbook with the soubriquet Hertford election day cake is claimed by the author to be the "real one" and is printed here. Election Day Cake 30 qt. flour 10 lb. butter 14 lb. sugar . ' 12 lb. raisins 3 doz. eggs 1 pt. wine 1 qt. brandy 4 oz. cinnamon 4 oz. fine corianda seed 3 oz. ground allspice Wet flour with milk to consistency of bread overnight a'ddihg 1 qt. yeast. Next morning Work butter and sugar together for half hour when it has risen. Work in every other ingredient except the plumbs (the liquor) Page Fifteen which is worked in when going into the oven. .Another early recipe for election day cake published by Mrs. E. A. Howland in 1847 shows how great the variations in recipes were. . Mrs. E. A. Howland published in 1847 as follows: 4 pounds of flour % of a pound of butter 4 eggs 1 lbQ sugar Half a pint of good yeast Wet it with milk, as soft as can be moulded on a board. Set it to rise over night in Winter; in warm weather, 3 hours is usually enough for it to rise. Bake it about three-quarters of an hour.
