SYRUP 
These blocks are made by evaporating the strong 
flavored grades of maple sap. The flavor is so 
highly concentrated that these blocks are not de- 
sirable as edible maple sugar. However, they 
are valuable for making delicious blends of cane 
and maple syrup. Commercial maple syrup 
blends average only 15% maple. Now make your 
own blend to suit your taste, by simply dissolving 
this block in hot water, together with cane sugar. 
You'll find a 25% or 33% maple blend has much 
ticher flavor. Full directions included. 8 oz. Block 
(makes approximately one quart of flavorful table 
syrup), Each 95c, 2 blocks for $1.75 postpaid.
