<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 249437, member: 44&quot;]Notice how I put quotes around Patty Pan. I wanted y&#039;all to know I was quoting directly from that page and that I hadn&#039;t finally gone over the edge. I have no idea what one is used for. SBSVC&#039;s info gathering is as good as it gets for one: &quot;Patty-pans are apparently for patties.&quot; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>As to Rococo, they are referring to the style of the dish. Rococo style is also known as &quot;Late Baroque.&quot; Baroque to me is &quot;over the top,&quot; very ornate with curves, scrolls, shells, asymmetrical designs, whites and golds, mirrors, etc... Those dishes have the curves, scrolls, shell look of Rococo. Here is a Rococo decorated room of the early 18th century:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://media1.britannica.com/eb-media/97/108497-004-3D6892C8.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: The following article is more or less saying Queen&#039;s cakes were baked in Patty Pans that could be &quot;<b>Petty pans, patty pans, queen cake tins, little tins, teacups,1 or saucers</b> were used to bake the small cakes.&nbsp; The patty pans were <b>tin, glass, &#039;table-china,&#039; &#039;chinaware&#039;, &#039;blue and white,&#039; or &#039;stone.&#039;</b>&quot;</p><p><a href="http://researchingfoodhistory.blogspot.com/2011/04/queen-cakes-and-patty-pans.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://researchingfoodhistory.blogspot.com/2011/04/queen-cakes-and-patty-pans.html" rel="nofollow">http://researchingfoodhistory.blogspot.com/2011/04/queen-cakes-and-patty-pans.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>and then there are these:</p><p><a href="http://gotheborg.com/glossary/pattypan.shtml" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://gotheborg.com/glossary/pattypan.shtml" rel="nofollow">http://gotheborg.com/glossary/pattypan.shtml</a></p><p><br /></p><p>and also found mention of patty pan squash as SBSVC found. Serving cooked patty pan squash in them would probably be the best use of them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
