Is there any difference between a Pizzelle iron and a Krumkake iron?

Question

Can you use a Krumkake iron to make Pizzelle cookies or do you have to use a Pizzelle iron only?

Answer 1

My pizzelle make ALSO says Krumkake.

When looking a machines to purchase I noticed they both were identical or at least where I was looking. Both machines had hinges and a pattern and then when done cooking you simply roll either one up.. same thing as far as I am concerned!

: ) HAPPY IRONING, which ever one you have.

Answer 2

A pizzelle iron is similar to a waffle iron, with both traditional and modern electric versions available.

The traditional pizzelle iron is a heavy cast-iron double skillet, made to be held over an open fire until the cookie is baked. Modern electric pizzelle irons simply plug into a wall and are pressed down for a few seconds to cook the pizzelle through. Historically, a pizzelle iron would be embossed with the family crest or some other symbol of personal significance; modern pizzelle irons use a handful of symbols, most often a snowflake, basket or some sort of floral print.
a krumkake iron
A krumkake is a thin crisp cone shaped cookie of Scandinavian origin. Krumkake literally means "crumble cookie" and the delicate texture of these cookies makes them uncommonly delicious. Our Krumkake Iron consists of two heavy cast plates which are hinged together with two handles for turning. The plates sit in a burner base which sits on your stove. The plates emboss a design on the cookie as it bakes. The cookie is then rolled into the shape of a scroll or cone while it is still warm
