What We Were Looking for in a Frozen Waffle Brand
As a self-proclaimed frozen waffle expert, I look for these criteria (my testing crew agreed):
Honorable Mention: Great Value Frozen Waffles
These Great Value waffles had many testers thinking they were the biggest name in the frozen waffle game. They were light and fluffy with just a touch of crunch. These waffles weren’t sweet and instead were almost eggy (but in a good way!) making them a great canvas for sweet or savory toppings.
Best in Show: Aldi Frozen Waffles
I shouldn’t have been surprised when Aldi’s Breakfast Best brand snagged the top spot in this test. Aldi regularly wins (or nearly wins) many of our taste tests— just see for yourself!
The Bottom Line
You may have noticed that none of the alternative waffles—I’m talking the protein-packed or organic—placed in the top for this test. These waffles just weren’t as satisfying as their more traditional counterparts. If extra fiber or protein is important to you, these waffles aren’t a bad option, but on flavor alone, they just can’t hold a candle.
Ice Cream Wafflewiches
A wafflewich is a masterpiece of textures with chewy waffles, smooth ice cream, gooey caramel syrup and crunchy pecans. This is cold storage comfort food. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
