THE CLIFTON RECORD — Clifton, Texas
DelmeSia Dunn Reports
BY DELMELIA DUNN
County Extension Agent
When the family can’t eat
another bite of the Christmas
cake, don’t throw it out,
freeze it.
Proper packaging and freez-
ing will help maintain good
eating quality until the family
is hungry for sweets again.
Always use moisture-vapor
proof materials such as sheets
of freezer paper, heavy alumi-
num foil, certain plastic wraps,
or glass, metal and rigid plas-
tic containers.
Ordinary waxed papers,
household aluminum foil and
cartons for cottage cheese and
iee cream should not be used
because they are not moisture-
vapor proof or resistant.
Cakes made by a standard
recipe will freeze well. Those
containing fat may dry out
slightly after two months, and
flavor changes may be expect-
ed after four months. Angel
food, yellow sponge, and chif-
fon and fruit cakes will keep
satisfactorily up to one year.
Thaw cakes in their original
wrappings to prevent formar
tion of moisture on the sur-
face of the cake. A large cake
will thaw in about two hours
at roam temperature.

For frosted cakes, uncooked
confectioner’s sugar frostings
freeze best. The fat ingredi-
ent helps keep frostings from
drying out and forming cry-
stals. Candy-type frostings
such as fudge can be frozen
hp to three to four weeks.
Boiled an dother soft frostings
containing egg whites and
cream fillings are suitable for
calkes to be frozen.
Fresh fruit, pumpkin, mince,
chocolate and lemon chiffon
pies freeze successfully. Cus-
tard pies do not freeze Well
and- meringc toppings tend to
toughen, shrink, separate and
stick to the wrapping.
To thaw frozen baked fruit
pies simply remove the wrap-
Pei* and heat immediately in
a 375 degree F. oven for 30
minutes. Allow chiffon pies
to thaw at room temperature
before serving. Pies cqn be
stored in the freezer for two
t6 three months.
Bar, dropped, rolled and re-
frigerator type cookies may be
frozen for six to 12 months.
Recipes high in fat and low in
moisture freeze best. Thaw
cookies in original containers
at room temperature. Fullv-
baked yeast breads can be
stored up to two months in
the freezer.

BY JAKE WIMBERLY
The basket seemed to dodge
as the Eighth Grade Cubettes
fell by a close margin to
China Spring.
For the guards it was Kim
Bartles with 4 rebounds and 6
steals, Brenda Eary had 2 re-
bounds and 4 steals, Betty
Sanders got 2 steals, Rhonda
Anz made some rebounds and
helped the other girts bring
down the ball.
The forwards worked well
but seemed to have a bad
night for scoring. Lisa Rowe
got 13, Linda Ludwig 9,
Janice Horak 5 and Mary Jo
Ray 2.
The girls now have a season
record of 2 wins and 2 loses.
They have plans to start tin
new year off with a much bet
ter game and up this winning
