Al and I taught a 2-hour class on "Life in 17th Century Colonial Virginia from Two Points of View" yesterday and I made these journeycakes as a prop. It was just by happenstance they turned out looking so authentic as if they had been made with ash. Didn't taste so good to our 21st century palate, but were true to the recipe. Good thing they were just for looks! Oh, just in case you were wondering, Al was the pirate and I was the tavern landlady and we had a great fun with it.
