Fill a lozenge-shaped mold with cherry ice cream (No. 3451) or currant water ice (No. 3602); unmold and put it in the bottom of a Montelimar mold packed in ice; finish filling the lozenged part of the mold with mandarin water ice and the rest with vanilla ice cream (No. 3458), into which mix the pulp of two oranges macerated for an hour in maraschino. Fill the molds well, force on the cover, pack and freeze for one hour; unmold and cutting in half-inch slices dress each slice on lace paper and serve. The length of the mold is eight inches long inside, the height is three and three-quarters inches and the width at its base is three and a quarter inches. The lozenge is the same length as the larger mold and its height is two inches.
