FAQ – EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE COOKING

What is a croffle made of?

A croffle is made by pressing croissant dough in a waffle maker until golden and crisp outside, while staying buttery inside. It combines the flakiness of a croissant with the shape and crunch of a waffle. Our maple version adds a sweet Québécois twist with maple syrup and toppings.

What toppings go well with croffles?

Croffles go great with maple syrup, whipped cream, fruits, caramelized nuts, or even ice cream. For a classic Québec-style treat, drizzle maple syrup and add butter or maple whipped cream.

Is a croffle a croissant?

Not exactly. A croffle is made with croissant dough, but it’s cooked in a waffle maker instead of baked in the oven. The result is crisp on the outside, soft inside — like a sweet, flaky waffle.

Can you make croffles with store-brought croissants?

Yes! You can use store-bought croissant dough or frozen croissants. Let them thaw and rise if needed, then press gently in a waffle maker. It’s a quick way to make croffles at home without the work of laminated dough.

Why is this called croffle?

The name "croffle" is a blend of "croissant" and "waffle." It became popular on social media for its unique shape and texture. It’s easy to make, fun to customize, and perfect for sweet or savoury brunch recipes.
