Waffles for a sweet breakfast with fruits and creams
Sweet waffles work well as a good start to the day. Crispy on top and soft in the middle, they pair well with fresh fruit and creamy toppings. The classic version with strawberries and whipped cream is very popular. However, there are many more serving possibilities.
