Please contact us for complete information! GOODE COOKYS During the Middle Ages & Renaissance, small cakes or wafers, such as Springerle from Swabia & Basel, Lebkuchen from Nuremberg, & Shrewsbery Cakes from England, were the predecessors of our modern cookie. Many of these cakes were created in a variety of shapes, sizes, & designs, produced by hand-carved molds that depicted images of saints, elements of daily life, & period patterns & motifs. In this tradition, Goode Cookys from Gode Cookery are handmade from historical molds & bring to life the elaborate & decorative cakes, wafers, & gingerbread of the Middle Ages. They are the perfect accent to any medieval or Renaissance meal and a delight for diners to eat or preserve as a keepsake.  Goode Cookys for sale at a SCA event in Pennsylvania, 2005.
