How to Make:  Fill a pan with snow.  Be sure it is clean. Have all
your ingredients ready before you bring in the snow, so it doesn't
have time to melt. If there isn't any snow, make crushed ice. An easy
way to do this is wrap a few cubes of ice at time in a kitchen towel
and pound them with a heavy object, such as a rolling pin. Put the
crushed in a bowl. Continue until all the cubes are crushed. Heat the
maple syrup in the saucepan over low heat for about two minutes until
it is warm. Remove it from the heat. Fill each paper cup with enough
snow or ice to make a rounded top. Drop a tablespoon or more of maple
syrup on top of the snow or ice. Note: You can use either pure maple
syrup or maple-flavored syrup for this recipe.  STORY: In the center of
Canada's flag is a red maple leaf-a symbol of  Canada's many maple
trees.  No wonder everyone likes to turn out in  the early spring to
help collect the sweet liquid from the sugar  maples. The snow is still
on the ground.  The sap is gathered and  boiled down into maple syrup.
As a special treat, the hot syrup is  poured over fresh snow. With
cider and doughnuts, cups of sweet Maple  Snow make festive
refreshments at a sugaring-off party.  Source: Many Hands Cooking, an
