ABOUT
CURIOUS
CONFECTIONARIES
A Public History MA Final Project. 

A website designed to tell the history of sweet foods, with the addition of eighteenth century recipes from both personal manuscript recipe books and popular published books from famous eighteenth century authors. Video tutorials are also provided for a wide variety of recipes, so please cook along with us! 

 

This website is designed for people to  TASTE HISTORY

Forget the textbook and museum, and instead consume history around the dinner table!

​

Enjoy the sweet foods, whilst educating yourself about curiosity, sociability and luxury; three terms that define the eighteenth century.
