   NOTES:
   
   *  A traditional Australian sweet snack -- Mention
   this recipe to an Australian abroad and he will
   instantly get homesick.  Yield:  serves 6.
   
   *  Rice Bubbles are called Rice Krispies in North
   America.  Icing sugar is confectioner's sugar.
   Sultanas are like raisins.  Copha, it would appear, is
   utterly unavailable outside Australia. It is a
   partially-solidified shortening made of coconut oil.
   
   : Difficulty:  easy if you can get the ingredients.
   : Time:  5 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooling.
   : Precision:  approximate measurement OK.
