wafer

A wafer is a thin and delicate piece of food, often made from flour or corn, used as a base for various toppings.

When we talk about wafers, most people think of them as crispy snacks or treats. You might find them at parties or events, topped with sweet things like chocolate or fruit preserves. In some cases, wafers are also used in cooking and baking - like the crunchy bottom of an ice cream sundae or a cookie.
