18932325Vincennes et Paris, chez les auteurs Lacam et Charabot, 1893. In-8 – 14,5 x 22 cm. Reliure moderne en demi-chagrin violine, dos lisse orné d’une pièce de titre soulignée de filets dorés, tranches mouchetées. 2f, 374pp. Rare édition originale de ce manuel, le plus important jamais publié sur l'art du glacier. Ouvrage illustré de figures in-texte. La préface retrace d'abord l'histoire de la profession : les premières glaces ont été réalisées à Lyon en 1520 par un certain Casati, et "Catherine de Médicis les apporta de Florence en 1533". Le succès du métier et du produit à Paris date du XVIIe siècle et de l'installation décisive de Procope à Paris en 1660. En 1798, Velloni ouvrit à Paris un premier café proposant des glaces et granités napolitains (à l'angle de la rue Taitbout), puis fonda divers autres établissements avec le concours de son aide, Tortoni. Après l'avant-propos et les biographies avec portraits gravés des grands glaciers modernes (Procope, Tortoni, Appert, Chevet, Lulli, ce volume évoque divers ingrédients pour la cuisine et la pâtisserie, puis contient 406 recettes élaborées par les auteurs. Rappelons que P. Lacam fut le pâtissier-glacier du prince Charles III de Monaco. Charabot a été chef pâtissier au Quirinal à Rome, au Savoy à Londres, chez Quillet et Julien à Paris. Inconnu de Bitting, Vicaire, Oberlé et de toutes les autres bibliographies à l’exception de Cagle, 255. Ce dernier n’évoque cependant pas les 2 portraits hors-texte que certains exemplaires semblent comporter, absents ici.
