Memories & Stories

Imperial Sugar Company,
So many sweet memories from my childhood fill my mind as I write. I can see my great-grandmother, Little Grandma Cox, rolling and cutting out Tea Cakes. Her Tea Cakes were always a family favorite for 3 generations to enjoy. When we would visit her and after giving her a quick hug, we would head straight for her cookie jar to have a Tea Cake. My Mammaw Cox continued the Tea Cake tradition. My mother continues to make Tea Cakes.

On October 10, 1967, my Mammaw Almond gave me My First Cookbook! She even signed and dated it! My favorite recipe from this cookbook is the Tiny Turtle Salad. I shared the cookbook with my daughters in their early years! One night while watching the news, I saw a feature on Imperial Sugar and saw My First Cookbook! I was so excited and got my copy from the shelf!

Sincerely,
Beverly Murphree
