Raspberries And Strawberries

Cap the fruit; wash before capping. They should not lay in the water long, neither should the fruit be washed too much. Strawberries wilt very soon after the sugar is put upon them; if to be kept any length of time it is better not to cap and sugar them until a couple of hours before serving; then put alternate layers of sugar and fruit in a glass dish, and put in a cool place until wanted.

Pineapples may be sliced very thin, mixed with powdered sugar, and placed on ice until ready to serve. Pineapples should always be sliced lengthwise, in order to avoid the hard cores in the center.
