I fell in love with these waffles and the owner, Jean Francios Flechet. I was introduced to both this evening at an industry event. I think they would be the coolest "late night snack" ever for a wedding reception. Can't wait to have them at a wedding. Can't imagine every bride not wanting them. Truly so good, easy to eat and all self contained. Here is a bit of what I found on their web site.
'"The dough of the Liège waffle is sweeter and denser than "Belgian
waffles" as we know them in the U.S. This waffle has a rich vanilla
flavor and cooks up with a caramelized sugar coating on the outside,
giving it a delightful sweetness. In Europe, this waffle is one of few
products prepared to be eaten "on the go". It is typically served in a
paper wrapping and eaten with the hands…no plate or fork required.
The Liège waffle can also be enjoyed complemented by toppings, if you choose. Many of our customers enjoy whipped cream, chocolate, Madison's homemade Gelato, as well as a variety of fruits.
Delicious, popular and portable… The Liège waffle is a sweet snack that can be enjoyed any time of day or night. The original taste and texture of the cast iron press can be easily refreshed by heating the waffle in the comfort of your home. Simply pop it in a convection oven or toast it like a bagel. It's a treat you're sure to enjoy time and time again."
