Martha Stewart
You can count on Martha Stew-
art for wonderful recipes and
great presentation.
This year she’s worked up some
sensational brittles of all sorts,
a couple of delectable chocolate
truffles – ever considered an
Earl Grey tea truffle? – or how
about making old-fashioned
pulled peppermint candy sticks,
pralines, fudges or toffee. Of
course, Martha will show you
how to gift wrap or package
these for the most stunning pres-
entation also.

For more traditional tastes,
try Southern foods for more ter-
rific holiday candy recipes.
If candy making doesn’t appeal
to you, you can’t go wrong with
a trip into a good candy store. At
Abe’s in Lincoln, Helen Rain-
forth has ordered in from all her
favorite candy makers – Godiva,
Long Grove, Ghiradelli and Ab-
dallah, which offer high-quality
candies and chocolates.
The store is most popular for
its caramel corn, cheese and
buttered popcorn that are made
fresh on the premises daily and
ready to go in your choice of tin
for the perfect gift.
There are also all the newest
and best gourmet products, such
as soup starters, condiments,
coffees, teas, and many more
great food gift or party items to
choose from.
Bear in mind that when you give
someone candy, you may be
held liable for continuing a new
“sweet memory.”
