Good point there as Edward IV absolutely loved wafers. Unfortunately
Florilegium's message "pancakes-msg ? 11/20/04" only cites one 17th C
Dutch painting showing wafer irons.  >>>

It does? Oops. I'm not sure that that message on wafers should have  
been in the pancakes file, although it may have been in there because  
it had info on pancakes and only peripherally on wafers. Or I forgot  
to move it to the more appropriate file.

Anyway, for info on wafers, I would check this file, also in the FOOD- 
BREADS section:
wafers-msg        (85K) 11/13/04    Period savory and sweet wafers.  
Recipes.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/FOOD-BREADS/wafers-msg.html

I still don't remember it having anything on the patterns on period  
wafer irons, though. I'd love to get such info though. And if someone  
has pictures of such patterns, I can put graphics info files.
