     40    Whole walnuts

     12 oz Frozen grape juice;undiluted

     10 ts Cornstarch

           Confectioners' sugar
  Thread a needle with 2 foot length of white, heavy-duty carpet thread. Tie
  a knot 8 inches from the end. Carefully string 20 walnuts. Tie a knot after
  the last walnut. Tie thread ends together forming a necklace. Repeat for
  remaining 20 walnuts. Divide the grape juice concentrate. From one half,
  pour 1/3 cup into a jar. Pour the remaining amount of that half into a
  small saucepan. Heat to boiling. Spinkle 5 teaspoons of cornstarch into the
  jar of juice. Shake vigorously. Gradually stir into boiling juice. Cook
  until thick enough to heavily coat spoon. Remove from heat. Dip one
  "necklace" into grape juice until every nut is coated. Hang loop in an airy
  spot. Dip and hang second necklace. Allow to hang 30 minutes. Repeat the
  whole procedure. Dry necklaces several days until coating is no longer
  sticky. When dry, repeat dipping. Use the remaining half of grape juice and
  cornstarch.  Dip necklaces twice.  Let hang to dry a week.  When dry, snip
  knotted thread.  Carefully pull out.  Dust rolls with confectioners' sugar.
  Slice into 1/2 inch rounds.  Makes two 7-inch rolls.
