1198 | Savarin Cake, hot.
—Prepare a savarin cake exactly as for the above (No. 1197), and when unmolded, place it on a wire grate, but do not glaze it. Pour into a saucepan a pint of cold water with five ounces of granulated sugar, and let boil for five minutes. Take it off, and add immediately half a gill of kirsch, mixing it in well. Place the grate with the savarin in a vessel, take hold of the handle with the right hand, and drop the syrup carefully all over the top; lift up the grate and cake. Remove the syrup remaining in the vessel into the pan, boil it again; return the grate and cake to the vessel, and pour over the remaining syrup. Then, lifting the grate on one side, glide the cake carefully onto a dessert-dish. Put into a saucepan four ounces of candied cherries with half a gill of kirsch. Stir it slightly until it comes to a boil and decorate the top of the cake with it; then serve.
