The book is from "Christmas 1954." This book may have been a gift to Ella Kesner from Daisy Wilson. Most of the recipes are for desserts and have names next to them, possibly for the club member who contributed the recipe. There are also a few magazine cutout recipes at the front of the manuscript.
