My big brother was bright, smooth and fat



I'm just as bright, but slim and matte



The how changed, why stayed the same



To paint a picture time and time again




What am I?

          I think you're a




          flatscreen display




          My big brother was bright, smooth and fat




          old cathode ray tube based screens were bulky




          I'm just as bright, but slim and matte




          flatscreens provide as much light as older screens, but are slimmer




          The how changed, why stayed the same




          The method of picture generation is completely different, but the purpose is the same




          To paint a picture time and time again




          Screens create multiple successive frames to give the impression of a moving picture

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates.

Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar.
