Whether for breakfast or as a dessert, waffles make gourmets' hearts beat faster. Some like them with fruit, others with icing sugar or syrup. I've rummaged through our shop and picked out your favourites.
As a child, I looked forward to breakfast on holiday as if Easter and Christmas had fallen on the same day. Every time we went on holiday with the family and my father chose a hotel with a breakfast buffet, I hoped for waffles. Because it often happened that a cook with a white cap and apron was standing somewhere preparing fresh waffles on request. My day was saved.
I still love this type of pastry today. However, I prefer to eat them as a dessert, as my breakfast habits have changed since my childhood. Galaxus customers also seem more than just fond of the crispy, airy dessert. The term "waffle iron" has not only been trending on Google in recent months, but has also appeared frequently in our shop search. I did some research and wanted to know which iron is your favourite .
The savoury one
What tastes even better than fresh waffles? That's right: fresh heart-shaped waffles. Not only will you win over your loved one at breakfast in bed, but you'll also win over gourmets and gourmands. Trisa has correctly named this thing "Waffle Pleasure" - a clever move, in my opinion. You seem to like it: 13 reviews with a 5-star rating are more than impressive.
The classic
Hearts are the defining element here too. And here, too, buyers are impressed by the product: the item gets an average of 5 stars, with 12 reviews so far. The chrome-plated metal housing, the extra-heavy cover and the non-stick coating are just some of the arguments that persuaded you to buy it. While the iron from Trisa is more "basic", you will find the waffle maker from Cloer in the deluxe range.
The Belgian
Square, practical, good. Although I'm cheekily borrowing this slogan from a German chocolate manufacturer, it fits the Domo waffle iron. According to the manufacturer, it makes extra-thick Belgian waffles. Thanks to the quick heating function, this professional appliance makes it possible to enjoy waffles in a matter of minutes. No wonder you like it: Belgian celebrity chef Piet Huysentruyt had a hand in the development of this waffle maker.
The convertible
Snack, main course and dessert all in one? That's not possible. Yes, it is - the Multi-3-in-1 from Unold makes it possible. Whether you want to fry a sausage with the contact grill, toast a sandwich with the sandwich insert or conjure up a delicious dessert with the waffle iron: Thanks to Unold, you only have to change the inserts, not the basic appliance. Galaxus customers celebrate this multitasker with a 5-star rating.
The big one
Do you prefer to skip the starter or main course and go straight to dessert? No problem for the waffle iron from efbe-Schott. Your miracle product conjures up four delicious waffles on your plate at the same time. Waiting and starving is definitely not an option here. After the gluttony, concealed hinges allow for a smooth cleaning process and let your waffle iron shine in new splendour for the next use.
The sweet thing
Waffles are all well and good, but what about donuts and cupcakes? The ladies and gentlemen at Russell Hobbs also asked themselves this question and created the Fiesta waffle iron. So that you don't have to limit yourself to just one dessert, you can also easily prepare fluffy donuts or cupcakes with the interchangeable inserts. Creating your own dessert buffet has never been so easy. Well then, let the fiesta begin!
The handy one
The waffle iron from Severin looks small and handy from the outside, but with 1300 watts and 5 waffles per cycle, it offers plenty of power and output. It is also the cheapest product in this list - the value for money seems to be right here. Although this waffle maker has only received one review, the buyer is impressed. Although it is a little slow and does not emit a warning sound as soon as the waffle is ready, the bottom line is that it is recommended to buy.

The aristocrat
At least the brand name of this waffle maker sounds regal, as it comes from Princess. Although the performance of the appliance and the size and number of waffle moulds are less elite than the name suggests, they are nothing to sneeze at either. It has everything you could wish for in a waffle maker. You don't have to dig too deep into your pocket either - and thanks to its simple design, it fits into any kitchen.
The professional
If you buy this waffle maker, you can officially call yourself a caterer. This iron is twice or even three times as expensive as the previously mentioned appliances, but it can also do more. According to the manufacturer, you can conjure up Belgian waffles in XXL format and with 50 per cent more volume. The rotating device enables the dough to be evenly distributed on both heating plates. Do you like it pompous? Then this thing is a must-have!
