[Sca-cooks] wafers was sorta OT - Cookie Exchange 2002?

[johnna holloway]

I have three of the new electric machines... (Remember I am working on a
book on this topic... I have been into wafers for over twenty plus
years... I did wafers when few others were doing wafers.) The krumkake
ones are thin and fragile. I make those on site. The pizzelle
irons(either the two or mini 4 at a time) make a thicker cookie. I take
them out and let them harden up on a rack. Then they are batched up and
put into plastic containers.  I did over 600 for last fall's crown and
had no trouble transporting those. I have lots of packing materials and
boxes, so I would double box the cookies for this and pack carefully.

a snowy winter this year...)
