Greatest Help.
WHAT so tempting to the
laggard appetite as a
light, flaky, fruit short cake or
a delicate hot biscuit?
Royal makes the perfect
short cake, biscuit and muffin,
and improves the flavor and
heaithf ulness of all risen flour
foods. It renders the biscuit, hot
bread and short cake more di
gestible and nutritious, at the
same time making them more
. attractive and appetizing.
Royal Baking Powder is in
dispensable for the preparation
all the year round of perfect
foods.
