I had a long story written up about what made a Kansas City Quiche a KC Quiche and one browser crash later it was gone. I also lost the original scan- it came from some newspaper.
Also: the Quiche will look nothing like the featured image. I needed something and it came up as a free option.
I was trying to find something (anything) about this recipe fpr a Hawaiian Party Cake and there isn’t that much out there. I can find all sorts of cake decorating tips and tricks but only two websites with this style of cake. Is it authentic? Doubtful. I have a feeling that it came about as part of the Hawaii is an exotic place so add some pineapples. (Fun fact- most pineapples now come out of the Philippines, not Hawaii).
One of the things I have discovered about vintage recipes is that sometimes measurements can be optional. I wonder- just what sized marshmallows are intended for this recipe. I think it would be safe to assume that this recipe for Peach Marlow would use the traditional size of marshmallows (that we use for s’mores) and neither the giant ones sold today or the little ones. Another thing I’ve discovered is how they will leave out instructions- here we have the example of assuming that people already know how to whip cream and that they are doing it while allowing the peach/ marshmallow mixture to cool. (Of course NOW I’ve discovered a typo in the PDFs I created… sighs… back to fixing that)

Notes
If it is desired to use canned peaches instead of fresh fruit, use ½ cup from the juice instead of the water, only 18 marshmallows, omit the sugar and add ½ tsp vanilla. Follow the instructions as above.
