You must have missed my private email answer on this earlier.

Check these two files in the Florilegium:
In the FOOD section:
illusion-fds-msg  (86K)  1/18/01    Medieval illusion foods. Diguised
food.

In the FOOD-SWEETS-DECORATED section:
sotelties-msg    (199K) 11/ 1/00    Sotelties and Warners - decorated
food.

The first has several mentions of "hedgehogs". The second has several
period recipes for "hedgehogs" as well as a number of redactions.

Since there are several different recipes, I don't think I want to try
to select the best one for you and post it here.
