Post by: ssheri72 on February 19, 2011, 11:37:09 PM: This set was in a box of stuff I got from an auction and Im clue to what it is or what to even call it to research it. I know it has to do with baking, I'm guessing! ;D. Any help or information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

They are labor intensive - but fun/different!

Post by: waywardangler on February 20, 2011, 12:34:54 PM: I am 100% of Norwegian ancestry and I have had these at Christmas for as long as I can remember. Tales is right on with rosettes. Griswold and Wagner have no idea what they made because I have never ever heard them called "patty molds". Patty molds sounds like something one would make hamburger patties with. I think their "patty molds" were for something totally different and not for use in hot oil to make rosettes with.

Post by: mart on February 21, 2011, 08:49:10 AM: I had forgotten about a set of these that I bought to put on ebay. Dug it out to list and there are several brochures with it. Hirco Mfg. calls it Party Patty Shells and Molds, Bonly Products calls them Waffles, Rosettes and Timbales, and Violet Bliss from Vi`s "Unique" Rosette and Timbale Irons, uses the same and Waffles too !! All of these are probably from the 40`s- 50`s !!

Post by: waywardangler on February 21, 2011, 11:08:27 AM: Good one, cogar! Evidently Griswold couldn't spell "rosette" and went with the easier "patty". I wonder what they called their krumkake iron?
Title: Re: I'm clueless to as what this is..
Post by: KC on February 21, 2011, 11:10:31 AM: I was thinking the same thing about the krumkakes! LOL

That's the German spelling for crumcake. ;D ;D

Like the German spelling of my name is Koger or Kogar.

I am 100% of Norwegian ancestry and I have had these at Christmas for as long as I can remember.

I had really good Norwegian friends years ago (actual immigrants). He,Torkjell, was my boss for several years. I really liked everything his wife Ann tried to feed me whenever I was at their home.

Except for one (1) thing, ........ extremely salty, slimy, pickled Herring. YUCK

And the way they were gulping them down I was sure they were going to taste delicious.

Post by: waywardangler on February 21, 2011, 02:41:31 PM: OMG, cogar! Pickled herring is DELICIOUS! Lutefisk is another story however... ::) Lutefisk is cod preserved in lye, yes, lye. That gelatinous mass of fish is not edible but many pay good money to devour it at church dinners around here.

mart...Krumkake is a Norwegian waffle cookie made of flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and cream made on a krumkake iron and then rolled while still warm on a tapered cone. They look like this...

Post by: mart on February 21, 2011, 03:22:43 PM: I will have to look that recipe up. I could sure use it !! In the south we have a crumbcake that is a coffee cake with a crumb topping. Haven`t made it in a long time though. Thanks all for educating me on Norwegian food !!

Post by: Oceans64 on February 21, 2011, 03:23:17 PM: Yum... I've never had one of those but can think of a lot of ways to enjoy one. Half melted bowl of rocky road ice cream comes to mind using one of those waffles as my spoon!! ;D
Title: Re: I'm clueless to as what this is..
Post by: mart on February 21, 2011, 07:04:39 PM: I make a cream cheese/cool whip combo that would be great in those cones !! Or dip the edges in chocolate let it cool and fill with chocolate cream. I gotta shut up or go cook !!!
