Edible goods are not usually considered suitable for archiving. This short article introduces an unconventional archive of images relating to design, book, costume, and performance history. Each image in this archive depicts an intricately decorated biscuit (cookie) set inspired by historical artifacts or styles. I began making these biscuits during the pandemic as a way of engaging with material culture while traditional archives and museums were closed, and I now perform this work as a form of close reading. I also collaborate with heritage organizations to make biscuit sets that share collection items with online audiences. This work has contributed to my own research process while celebrating the collections of a broad range of British archives.

食用商品通常被认为不适合存档。这篇短文介绍了与设计、书籍、服装和表演历史相关的非常规图像档案。该档案中的每张图片都描绘了一套装饰精美的饼干 （cookie），其灵感来自历史文物或风格。我在大流行期间开始制作这些饼干，作为在传统档案馆和博物馆关闭时接触物质文化的一种方式，现在我以一种细读的形式来创作这些作品。我还与遗产组织合作制作饼干套装，与在线观众分享收藏物品。这项工作为我自己的研究过程做出了贡献，同时庆祝了广泛的英国档案馆藏。
