wafer
Communion bread disk
A wafer is a thin, flat, crisp piece of something—typically food.
Communion wafers are unleavened bread used in Christian Eucharist.
Ice cream sandwiches use wafer cookies.
In electronics, a silicon wafer is a thin slice of semiconductor material from which microchips are cut.
The word suggests delicacy and precision: wafer-thin slices of prosciutto.
