Frozen Waffles

Published December 2005

How we tested

Although we typically make our waffles from scratch, the idea of store-bought waffles had us wondering which brand was best.

We corralled several brands of frozen waffles ranging from ordinary, to organic and tasted them topped with our winning maple syrup. We found an undisputed winner that our tasters praised for its buttery, eggy flavor and crisp exterior.
