Thank you so much for the wealth of information, my lord! I'm
planning a soteltie for EK's 12th Night, so the timing is great!
BTW...what is a "warner"?

Welcome to the SCA-Cooks list!
While I've still got a bunch of stuff to add to my sotelties-msg file,
this file in the FOOD-SWEETS section of my Florilegium might be a
useful
source for some of the comments, directions and recipws that folks on
this list and elsewhere have previously presented:
sotelties-msg (199K) 11/ 1/00 Sotelties and Warners - decorated
food.
These other files in the same section might also be of interest:

silver foil.

Do you include illusion food as a soteltie? If so, then these files in
the FOOD section may be of interest.
illusion-fds-msg (79K) 8/28/98 Medieval illusion foods. Diguised
food.
Warners-art (32K) 6/29/98 An article on disguised food.
by Alizaunde, Demoiselle de
Bregeuf.
Alizaunde's article is mainly a list of different kinds of sotelties
and
warners. While thin on detailed info, it is an excellant source for
ideas.
I plan to add a section to the Florilegium that consists of selected
photographs of sotelties and warners that have been prepared in the
SCA.
If anyone has any such pictures that I can use, please consider
sending
them to me. While I would prefer electronic copies, I can scan actual
photographs.
