A. UK: Look up 'Teddy Boys' in the late 50's early 60's, then along came the Beatles who were the leaders in fashion. All teenage boys had to have 'winklepicker shoes' - long, usually black leather shoes with long pointed toe cap. Straight jacket with high collar - sometimes called 'bum freezers' and drain pipe trousers. Slim ties came into fashion... Greasy hair in what was called a 'Tony Curtis' followed by the Beatle style and the start of long hair. p.s. the Hippy era did not come until later...

1960's fairy cake mix with green and red cherries?
Q. In the 1960's my mum used to make little cakes from a mix (maybe Viota?). The tiny glace cherries had a distinctive flavour and I have never found them any where else. Has anyone any idea what made them different?

A. Glace fruit is a term for fruit preserved in a sugar syrup. The term comes from the French "fruit glace," or glazed fruit. Candied fruits and crystallised fruits are similar, but with a different finish. Recipes vary from region to region, but the general principle is to boil the fruit, steep it in increasingly strong sugar solutions for a number of weeks, and then dry off any remaining water.
