The Original Sugar Plum Recipe -Sugar Plums


The Original Sugar Plum Recipe


You will need several clean and dry packing (mason) jars with lids.
Wash your red or wild goose plums.
Prick each plum with a fork.
Sprinkle with sugar.
Lay out on counter or on brown paper to dry for a while.
When dry enough to keep well,
pack sugared plums in jars.
Be sure and sprinkle the sugar plums with in a little more sugar when packing.
The sugar in the jar adds to the beauty and the taste of this home made confection.

You can also tie a jute or rag-tie bow around the top with a personalized
label and give this old fashioned favorite as a gift.
