Stroopwafel chocolate: the Dutch classic inside a bar
A stroopwafel is two thin waffles glued together with caramel syrup. Put that crunch inside milk chocolate and you get the bar this shop is known for.
First, the cookie
The stroopwafel comes from Gouda and is somewhere around two hundred years old. Two thin rounds of waffle batter, pressed on a hot iron, sliced apart while warm and put back together with a layer of caramel syrup. The Dutch way to eat one is to rest it on a hot cup of coffee until the syrup goes soft.
Then, the bar
Our stroopwafel bar takes that same crunch and caramel and sets it in a layer inside milk chocolate. You get the snap of the chocolate first, then the sandy crumble of the waffle, then the caramel. It is a slab rather than a thin bar, embossed with the windmill and scored into cubes.
A Google reviewer described the effect precisely: "I absolutely love this chocolate! The taste is amazing, and the crunch adds the perfect texture."
What is in it
Straight from the packaging: contains milk and wheat, and may contain traces of nuts. The wheat is the waffle, so this bar is not gluten free, and neither are the others. The full list per bar is on what is in our chocolate.
Where to get one
