Having just acquired Cariadoc's two-volume collection, and having 
spent a happy two weeks digging through Digby and the rest: orange 
blossom water is used in a fair number of English late 
period/Elizabethan biscuitty-style things.  (I don't have the books 
with me so can't give specifics, but there were quite a few).
