Break up a cocoa-nut; peel and wash the pieces in cold water, and
grate them. Mix in the milk of the nut and some powdered loaf-sugar
and then form the grated cocoa-nut into little balls upon
sheets of white paper. Make them all of a regular and handsome
form, and touch the top of each with a spot of red sugar-sand. Do
not bake them, but place them to dry for twenty-four hours, in a
warm room where nothing is likely to disturb the them.
