Rich Seed Cakes

One fourth of the receipt (recipe) for A Rich Seed Cake was prepared and baked in miniature tin cake hoops.  To prepare this receipt, one pound of Flour, twelve ounces of sugar, one pound of butter, nine eggs (without four whites), one spoonful of orange-flower water and one and a half ounces of carraway seeds were mixed together.  The key to the lightness of the cake is the amount of beating-beating it up all the Time for two Hours together.
