Neulette

Neulette is a rare, archaic French word, diminutive of "neule," which itself is of obscure origin but likely referred to a type of small, round cake or wafer, similar to a modern-day wafer cookie. Thus, a "neulette" would be an even smaller version of such a confection, essentially a tiny, delicate biscuit or wafer. The word is rarely encountered in modern French and is considered largely obsolete, found primarily in historical texts relating to food or regional traditions. The precise recipe and preparation methods for neulettes likely varied geographically and historically.
