Encyclopaedia entry
In the morning, as they were beginning to pack their slender goods, Elves that could speak their tongue came to them and brought them many gifts of food and clothing for their journey. The food was mostly in the form of very thin cakes, made of a meal that was baked a light brown on the outside, and inside was the colour of cream. Gimli took up one of the cakes and looked at it with a doubtful eye. 'Cram,' he said under his breath, as he broke off a crisp corner and nibbled at it. His expression quickly changed, and he ate all the rest of the cake with relish. 'No more, no more!' cried the Elves laughing. 'You have eaten enough already for a long day's march.' 'I thought it was only a kind of cram, such as the Dalemen make for journeys in the wild,' said the Dwarf. 'So it is,' they answered. 'But we call it lembas or waybread, and it is more strengthening than any foods made by Men, and it is more pleasant than cram, by all accounts.' [ The Fellowship of the Ring, by J.R.R. Tolkien ]
Origin
In J. R. R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, lembas was a lightweight, extremely nourishing food of the elves, which was given to the Fellowship to feed them on their journey.
