About Luikse wafel

The Luikse Wafel, or Liège waffle, is a rich, indulgent treat originating from the Liège region in Belgium. Crafted with a brioche-like dough, it incorporates pearl sugar, which caramelizes during cooking to create its signature golden crust and sweet crunch. With a dense texture and buttery flavor, it’s often enjoyed plain or with toppings like whipped cream, fruit, or chocolate. While it provides a quick source of energy due to its sugars and carbohydrates, it is also high in calories, fats, and sugars, making it more of an occasional indulgence than a daily choice. Its origins in Belgian cuisine reflect a tradition of artisan baking, offering a delightful taste of European street food culture. Pairing it with fresh fruit or enjoying smaller portions can help balance its nutritional impact.
