Yes, not overly fragile, but nicely thin and delicate -- that is, unless you make a thicker batter using a different recipe. I made them once using Amaretto and ground toasted almonds and they were thicker and sturdier, and quite tasty. The plain Italian pizzelle recipe is a good one and can even be made using olive oil instead of butter and egg-beaters instead of whole eggs (which I do to cut calories and fat). Try adding a little grated lemon zest too. Happy baking!

Yes, very - about as thick as a stack of 10 pages of typing paper. If you cook them lightly, they maintain some flex when cool, but if you cook them more thoroughly, they firm up to a crisp wafer.

the basic recipe are on the thin side , the traditional recipe pizzelles are thinker. Both recipes are available in the booklet provided with the unit.

They are fairly thin. Not like the thicker ones, these can get crispy and snap like thinner ones do.

Apparantly they are less than the 1.25" Belgian styles, which to me is a thin pancake shaped like a waffle. I'll be tossing this one out of my cart!

They are rather skinny, but they are regular in size. If I had a choice I would prefer a thicker set of Domino's.

Not really, but these pizzelles are a pretty good thickness, not really thin...but if you put too much batter in, it may pop over like mine did in the middle of cooking...they did replace it for me.

It can make them very thin. It all depends on the size of the ball of dough you put in there and the pressure you place on the handle. There is a bit of a learning curve at first, but after a batch or two, I got it down.

They are pretty thin, but it still might make a decent spaghetti style noodle for you. We use it mostly for our carrots and cucumbers in salads. What I would do is to try a little and see how it turns out before dedicating the whole zucchini to it.

I love the non-stick! The thinness of the pizzelle will be determined by the recipe you use and the amount of pressure you put on the iron when you place the batter in. Squeeze it tight for a few seconds before letting up to cook.

Not sure how to answer this... These are the same as my original set -- fairly sturdy and work well. The lids are pliable but I wouldn't call them "thin thin thin". I have no complaints.

There are lots of recipes on line. The secret to great pizzelles is anise oil, not extract.

We find that the pizzelles hold up very well. They stay crispy for over a month.

I did not adjust to 1 tsp. However , I only got about 32 pizzelles' from the batter. I didn't use too much. They were delicious.

they should be plump . i did get my package and they were so skinny. no order nothing . i contacted the store i had bought them from . they gave me a big run around as to they should still work. and were to refund me my 16 dollors. i never saw that and the beans were not useable . i do see others have ordered from other sights and have reported they were good. they seem to be vac. packed maybe that is why they look as they do. as you read my revew you will see the store i did order from. i would say order from some store that has posted better of the store. saling the beans.

I believe its in the recipe you use. My husband likes them thick so I use the recipe which uses 6 eggs & 3 1/2 cup flour. The basic pizzelle recipe uses 3 eggs & 1 3/4 cup flour, they were thinner. And I have a polished pizzelle maker. Love it!

The pizzelles are about 1/8" thick. If they are any thicker, you dough is too thick and not spreading over the iron.

I don't think they were very thin; my previous pizzelle maker made them very thin. This pizzelle maker is a little thicker; the first few came out very thick until I went ahead and locked it each time or went ahead and squeezed to the point of locking but just held it.

They are not very thick but also not very thin. I didn't have much problem with them so far. They are not very good for frying though.
