Lady Heloise introduced herself and mentioned an interest in making
sotelties:

> East Kingdom. ... I am a novice soteltie-maker, and I hope to learn the tricks
> of the trade for creating sotelties.
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:
gilded-food-msg (22K) 4/19/99 Gilded foods. Using gold and silver foil.
gingerbread-msg (39K) 1/31/00 Medieval gingerbread. Recipes.
marzipan-msg (29K) 11/ 1/00 Use of marzipan (almond paste) in sotelties.
Roses-a-Sugar-art (21K) 7/15/98 "Divers Pretty Things Made Of Roses
& Sugar"
by Mistress Renata Kestryl of Highwynds.
Sgr-a-Cnftns-art (20K) 12/26/00 "Of Sugar and Confections" by Alys
Katharine, O.L., O.P. (Elise Fleming).
sugar-msg (115K) 10/20/00 Sugar and other medieval sweeteners.
sugar-paste-msg (89K) 7/20/99 Making sugar paste sotelties.
Sugarplums-art (19K) 7/15/98 "Visions of Sugarplums" by Mistress
Renata Kestryl of Highwynds.
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.
