Surprise your customers with these summer special waffle variants

Only about a decade ago, innovations in serving waffle variants didn’t exist and the toppings on them were limited to either maple syrup, chocolate syrup or whipped cream. Today the market situation is very different; the demand for waffles has shot through the roof, thanks to the QSR's. In order to service this market, the amalgamation of innovation and creativity of chefs and bakers has reached its pinnacle as customers continue to demand for unique and unconventional flavour combos with waffles. It is, therefore, a challenge for bakeries, Cafe's and QSR's to continuously provide the consumers with new and unique recipe variants and options to choose from in order to maintain a regular flow of customers. Seasonal offerings play a vital role in attracting consumers by offering them limited time variants to experience. Mango is one such seasonal (summer) fruit that is an all time favourite across the Indian subcontinent which offers great promise. Here are 3 unique recipe combos using Mangoes that compliment the waffle perfectly with their sweet and tangy flavours.
