Paris Baguette’s Liège Style Waffle
Liege waffles, Belgian sugar waffles, gaufrettes, gaulettes, gullets,
or …
Gaufres de Liège
Sugar waffles in the style of Liege are rich, sweet almost cookie-like waffles that are dotted with pearl sugar. This tends to cause the sugar crystals near the edges to caramelize. And, caramelized sugar teetering on the dark side makes everything better. We would’ve liked to have seen more of that caramelization on these waffles. One of our waffles was dotted with more sugar crystals than the other. You can easily guess which one of the two was better. And, these waffles were speckled with large crystals of sugar… not snowy white pearl sugar.
Large Sugar Crystal, Not Pearl Sugar
We’re really surprised that there isn’t more caramelization.
Still, these are basically griddle-fried cookie dough. So, what’s not to love?
And, on the day of our visit, we nabbed the last two. This means you’ll want to go early in the day on the weekends if you want to nab a couple, too. Life Span? Eat these on the same day that you buy them. By the second day, they lose their charm.
Feuilletés au Chocolat
Mmm, now here’s some caramelized sugar. Laminated dough filled with chocolate and covered in brûléed sugar, we’ll take that. Yes, please! More, please. We’re so sorry we only bought one. Loved it!
