Necco Wafer Art

Posted by Alex in Arts & Crafts, Food & Drinks on August 30, 2007 at 8:48 pm


Baltimore-based artist Denise Tassin likes Necco wafers, a chalky sugar wafer snack made in Boston. Actually, I don’t know if she likes to eat them (Necco is famous for being "the candy nobody likes") but she does like to draw on ‘em:

They come in eight flavors and colors and make for an interesting art medium. In fact Tassin likes them so much, she has even been known to carry a pen and pack of Necco wafers with her wherever she goes. "It’s like having a little studio in your pocket."

    I live down the street from the Necco Wafer Plant. I LIKE Necco Wafers, they are different and delicious. But I would have never thought to write on them...
