<p>What makes a perfect cake?
Even rising? Tender brown
crust? Delicate flavor and fragrance?
All these qualities and
one more—the fine, moist, tender
texture that is hard to describe by
any word except “velvety”!</p>
<p>“Velvety crumb”—that is the expression
cake judges use in speaking
of the beautiful texture of
cakes leavened by Calumet, the
Double-Acting Baking Powder.</p>
<p>See it in this close-up picture of
a slice of Calumet cake! Then
make any cake in this book—cut
a slice and feel a crumb between
thumb and finger. Soft as velvet!
Touch the cut surface. So moist
and springy! Now taste a morsel
of the cake. Velvet-fine—velvet-smooth!</p>
<p>Every Calumet cake, plain cake
or party cake, dark or light or
golden-yellow, has this same lovely
texture—thanks to Calumet’s dependable
Double-Action. Use the
recipes in this book, following
Calumet’s thrifty proportion with
care, and all your cakes will be
perfect—the envy and admiration
of your friends!</p>

<p>What makes a perfect biscuit?
A little flaky, crusty morsel—and
pass the plate often—that’s
the South’s perfect biscuit, while
a Yankee biscuit is fluffy and high
as your Grandmother’s comforter.
Westerners like sugar and spice....
New Yorkers have a fondness for
the old-world flavor of cheese.</p>
<p>But thick or thin, sweet or tangy,
the best biscuits the country over
are light and tender biscuits—perfectly
leavened biscuits.</p>
<p>Calumet, the modern Double-Acting
Baking Powder, will show
you the way to biscuits light as
air, delicately brown and tender.
And on pages <SPAN href="#Page_19">19</SPAN> to 20 are tested
Calumet recipes, based on Calumet’s
marvelously economical proportion,
for any type of biscuit you
prefer to make and serve.</p>
<p>There is an extra touch of perfection
in every quick bread made
with Calumet. Muffins are tender,
evenly risen, free from humps and
from tunnels. Waffles, griddle
cakes, cookies, gingerbread, all owe
a new quality and sureness to Calumet’s
Double-Action. Read on
and see just how it works!</p>

<h2 id="c2"><span class="small">CALUMET’S DOUBLE-ACTION</span> <br/><i class="smaller">What it means to your baking!</i></h2>
<h3 id="c3">First Action</h3>
<div class="fig"> id="fig3"> <ANTIMG src="images/p02.jpg" alt="" width-obs="400" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>Just enough leavening in the mixing bowl</i></p> </div>
<p>See Calumet’s First Action. It begins in
the mixing bowl when you add liquid
(milk, water, or eggs) to the dry ingredients.
The instant liquid is added, things
begin to happen. Thousands of tiny gas
bubbles surge through the batter, making
it light and spongy and ready for baking.
BUT—only part of Calumet’s leavening
gas is released in the mixing bowl....</p>
<h3 id="c4">Second Action</h3>
<div class="fig"> id="fig4"> <ANTIMG src="images/p02a.jpg" alt="" width-obs="400" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>—just enough leavening in the oven</i></p> </div>
<p>Calumet’s Second Action is released by
heat. See what happens in the oven. Steadily,
evenly, hundreds of new tiny bubbles
swell through the batter and continue the
leavening. Up! ... up! ... they keep
raising the batter and hold it high and
light. Thanks to these two scientifically
balanced actions, Calumet Baking Powder
protects your baking from start to finish.</p>
<hr />
<p>Baking powder is a small part of any given recipe, yet it plays such
an important role that it is often called “the biggest little thing in
baking”. Too much or too little baking powder or baking powder that is
not efficient ... what a lot of baking trouble that can cause! Humped,
uneven cakes ... dry, harsh, coarse-grained cakes ... even flat failures!</p>
<p>Calumet’s two leavening actions are perfectly timed and balanced to
give maximum protection and superb quality to all your baking. A little
of this Double-Acting Calumet does a superfine job—and this means
extra economy for Calumet users. The usual Calumet proportion is 1
level teaspoon per cup of sifted flour. This amount is only one-half to
two-thirds the amount recommended for many other baking powders.</p>
<p>Most of the recipes in this book call for this proportion. In some
recipes, however, the number of eggs, the type of flour, or the nature
of other ingredients make advisable slightly more or slightly less. But
every recipe has been tested again and again and has been carefully
built with exactly the right proportions to give you the full advantage
of Calumet’s Double-Action. Follow these recipes accurately, faithfully,
and rejoice in the efficiency and economy of Calumet.</p>

<h2 id="c5"><span class="small"><i class="smaller">Such a comfort to busy women!</i></span> <br/>CALUMET BATTERS CAN WAIT</h2>
<div class="fig"> id="fig5"> <ANTIMG src="images/p02c.jpg" alt="" width-obs="388" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>Mix batter ... wrap tightly</i></p> </div>

<p>Cake Batter on hand in the icebox! Muffin batter! Cooky dough!
Ready to slip into the oven and bake whenever you want them.</p>
<p>Fresh, hot, good things for dinner without the fuss and flurry of last
minute mixing! Three or four hot desserts for week-end meals from
one batter mixing! No more cake failures because of ringing doorbells
and children’s demands just when a batter is ready for the oven.</p>
<p>Calumet batters can wait—for moments or for days! This is another
wonderful advantage that Calumet’s Double-Action brings you. For
even when you store cake batter for days, you can count on perfect
lightness when you bake it.</p>
<p>If baking is to be delayed only an hour or so, slip the bowl or pan of
batter into the refrigerator. To store longer, follow directions below.
Turn to <SPAN href="#Page_11">page 11</SPAN> for a large quantity cake recipe that will give you
batter for three quick desserts—a real Miracle Cake.</p>
<p class="revint">1. Mix Calumet batter, pour in pan; cover
tightly, first with a damp cloth, and then
with waxed paper. Tie securely.</p>
<p class="revint">2. Store batter in a cold place until you are
ready to bake. Calumet’s second action
will be held in reserve until the batter
reaches the heat of the oven.</p>
<p class="revint">3. Unwrap pans and bake as usual. Results
will be perfect—delicately light, tender,
fine and velvety in texture. How delightful
to serve things fresh-baked—hot—delicious,
without one bit of last-minute
fuss and flurry ... thanks to Calumet’s
remarkable Double-Action.</p>
<div class="pb" id="Page_4">4</div>
<h2 id="c6"><span class="small">REMEMBER THESE POINTS</span> <br/><i class="smaller">whenever you bake.</i></h2>
<div class="fig"> id="fig8"> <ANTIMG src="images/p03.jpg" alt="" width-obs="394" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>Sift flour before measuring—fill cup lightly</i></p> </div>
<div class="fig"> id="fig9"> <ANTIMG src="images/p03a.jpg" alt="" width-obs="392" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>Measure baking powder exactly—a level teaspoon</i></p> </div>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Do</i> be orderly. Plan your baking before you start. Choose your
recipe, read it through carefully, understand it clearly. Collect
all the ingredients specified, and arrange them in the order
called for in the recipe; assemble all the utensils needed on
your work table. Cultivate the do-it-right habit.</p>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Do</i> use good ingredients. You can’t do first-rate baking with
second-rate materials. Use fresh, sweet shortening and eggs of
fine quality. Use fine granulated sugar, unless some other kind
is called for in your recipe. Remember that baking powder
and flour are the most important ingredients in baking. Give
yourself the protection and advantages of Calumet, the
Double-Acting Baking Powder ... and of Swans Down Cake
Flour, too, whenever the recipe calls for it. It gives to cakes
and to certain quick breads a fineness and lightness that you
cannot expect from ordinary flour.</p>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Don’t</i> use more Calumet than the recipes call for. Calumet’s Double-Action
gives it extra efficiency—less of its leavening gas is lost
from the surface of batters during mixing. Thousands of tests
have proved that the small amounts of Calumet Baking Powder
specified in these recipes will give you best results. One
level teaspoon of Calumet to a cup of sifted flour is the correct
proportion for most recipes. In some recipes the nature
of the ingredients makes advisable slightly more or slightly less.</p>
<div class="pb" id="Page_5">5</div>
<h2 id="c7"><span class="small">THESE ARE BASIC RULES</span> <br/><i class="smaller">for surest, best results</i>!</h2>
<div class="fig"> id="fig10"> <ANTIMG src="images/p03c.jpg" alt="" width-obs="393" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>A bit of care brings results in preparing pans</i></p> </div>
<div class="fig"> id="fig11"> <ANTIMG src="images/p03d.jpg" alt="" width-obs="394" height-obs="300" /> <p class="pcap"><i>Watch your baking temperatures—finally, test the cake</i></p> </div>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Do</i> measure all ingredients accurately with standard measuring
cups and standard measuring spoons. A standard measuring
cup is an accurate half-pint measure—the equivalent of 16
level tablespoons. It is grooved on one side to read ¼, ½, and
¾; on the other, to read ⅓ and ⅔. A standard tablespoon is
equivalent to 3 standard teaspoons. Always sift flour once
before measuring, and remember that all standard measurements
are <i>level</i>.</p>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Do</i> mix carefully. Follow exactly the mixing directions given in
each recipe. The way you combine and handle your ingredients
is important.</p>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Do</i> use the type and size of pans specified in the recipes, and prepare
your pans before mixing. A greased paper lining in pans
for large butter cakes gives added protection.</p>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Do</i> handle cakes carefully, after baking. Place butter cake and
pan on cake rack, for about 5 minutes; then remove from
pan, and turn cake, top side up, on rack to finish cooling. For
sponge cakes, follow directions given in recipes.</p>
<p class="revint"><i class="b large">Don’t</i> guess about your baking temperatures. If your stove does not
have an oven heat regulator, use a portable thermometer. It
does not control heat, but it does tell you when to adjust the
baking temperature.</p>

<p>Recipes alone can never tell you all
the things you need to know for perfect
baking. Not even the complete and carefully
worded recipes in “The Calumet
Book of Oven Triumphs.”</p>
<p>It takes pictures and step-by-step directions
to show you the fine points that make
baking easy and invariably successful.</p>
<p>“All About Home Baking” is a new
book, just published this year, that brings
you a <i>complete set</i> of such baking pictures
and directions.</p>
<p>Tells you all the things that recipes
have to take for granted—how to measure,
sift, cream, beat, fold, prepare pans,
regulate ovens. Why you should mix a
white cake one way and a chocolate cake
another. How to make biscuits flaky,
waffles tender, muffins without tunnels.
How and when to remove cakes from
pans. Tricks in making perfect pie crust,
never-fail frostings and meringues.</p>
<p>Truly—the most helpful baking book
you ever saw. 144 pages, with 156 pictures
... 185 recipes in all, based on 23
key recipes. Glorious color plates ... 14
pages of menus and table-settings ...
bound in washable cloth covers of yellow
and blue. If you don’t think “All About
Home Baking” is worth $1.00 ... just
