FAQ – EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE COOKING

What is the best cheese for a ham and cheese croissant sandwich?

Oka cheese is an excellent choice for a ham and cheese croissant sandwich. It melts beautifully and has a mild, nutty flavour that complements the salty ham. Its creamy texture works especially well in warm, flaky pastries like croffles or croissant-style sandwiches.

What is the difference between a croffle and a waffle?

A croffle is made with croissant dough, while a waffle is made with batter. The croffle is crisp and flaky from the layers of pastry, giving it a buttery, golden texture that’s different from the soft, fluffy texture of a classic waffle.

What to put on a croffle?

You can top croffles with sweet or savoury ingredients. For a savoury version, try ham, cheese (like Oka), eggs, or avocado. You can also stuff them before cooking, like in our croffle filled with ham and melted cheese.

Can you make savoury croffles?

Absolutely! Savoury croffles are perfect for brunch. You can fill them with cheese, ham, herbs, or even vegetables before cooking. Our version with Oka cheese and ham is a rich, Québec-style twist on the viral croffle trend.

How do you keep croffles crispy?

To keep croffles crispy, serve them right after cooking. Avoid stacking them or covering with foil, which traps steam. If needed, reheat in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to bring back their crisp texture.
