Father’s Day Just Got Sweeter

In category: Dessert Holiday Pancakes Recipe

This Sunday is the day we pay tribute to the fathers in our lives. And it’s is one of our favorite holidays around the
De Wafelbakkers’ offices because we know families across the world are sitting down to breakfast together!

But the one thing we like as much as breakfast time is dessert time…and so does a lot of the Dads around here. So to all the Moms and kids, think about making this Minis Trifle recipe for Dad this Father’s Day and see what he thinks!

Minis Berry Tifle

Minis Trifle

  • Prepare 20 or so Minis according to the package.
  • Grab one of his favorite beer glasses.
  • Cut up fruit into bite-sized pieces. Bananas, strawberries…anything can work. We used an assortment of berries.
  • Pull out some whipped topping and chocolate topping…the kind you use to make sundaes.
  • Layer the minis, fruit, whipped topping and chocolate to your liking.

Then dig in. I bet Dad will love it.

The best part: You can’t make a mistake.

Happy Father’s Day everyone!

The Bloggers Are All Right

In category: Bloggers Events Pancakes SheCon

This weekend we attended the SheCon conference in sunny Miami Beach!

 

 

SheCon is a new media and brand expo specifically for bloggers and new media professionals. And we enjoyed meeting all of the people who dropped by our booth.

Throughout the weekend, we had an opportunity to introduce our pancakes to several of the country’s hottest bloggers. Breakfast was on us all day, every day and the product was a hit.

We sampled Buttermilk, Minis, Maple, Blueberry, and our All-Natural Buckwheat Berry and A+ Cinnamon Sweet Potato Pancakes at the show—without pouring one drop of syrup so folks could really experience the “made-from-scratch” taste!

Jackie from Atlanta said, “These are the best pancakes that I’ve ever had in my life.” Cheryl from Boca professed her new love for our product by saying, “I wasn’t aware of you guys before today but I’ll never buy anything else…ever!”

We also noticed more than a few folks making the rounds several times per day. You know who you are! :)

 

 

 

Thanks to all of the people who visited our booth this weekend and helped us feed “Dewey.” Dewey is a growing boy and he needs a nutritious breakfast to get his day started. Because of you all, Dewey probably ate 17 BAGS of pancakes this weekend—by himself!

Now we are off to our next event…The Family Motor Coach Association Rally in Berrien Springs, Michigan.

Till next time friends.

Lunchtime Experiments: Chicken and PANCAKES

In category: Experiments Lunch Pancakes

The great thing about working at De Wafelbakkers is that there is an endless supply of yummy pancakes and waffles around all the time. There are the afternoon ice cream sandwiches with waffles and pancake birthday cakes with fruit, honey and frosting on those special days.

Today, we tried something new. The southern combination of Chicken and Waffles is all the rage right now. And honestly, who doesn’t love FRIED chicken. Well, have you thought about Chicken and Pancakes?! Today, we stopped by the local chicken joint, grabbed a 12-piece bucket and paired it with our All-Natural Sweet Potato Pancakes. Now, this is comfort food at it’s best!!

 

Chicken and pancakes

 

Try it as soon as your “diet” allows. Wink. Wink.

We also have a ton of great recipes for our pancakes and waffles here too. Try them all and if you’ve got a recipe we got to try, submit your recipe here.

Our Kind of Road Warriors

In category: Breakfast Children Events Family Pancakes

If you didn’t know, our founder and retired CEO, Doug Williford, is an RV/Motor Home enthusiast. Every few months, he grabs the family and enjoys traveling the US—seeing new sites, meeting new people and truly appreciating this great country.

Over the last few years, De Wafelbakkers has adopted that passion and attends Family Motor Coach Association rallies all across the country. With the convenience and taste of De Wafelbakkers, our pancakes are the perfect meal for these road warriors.

 

fmca rally

 

Throughout the rally, we pass out hundreds and sometimes thousands of bags of pancakes to members. Any additional pancakes that are not distributed to members are donated to local food banks.

Recently, we were named “Honorary Members of the PRVVC (Professional RV Vendors Chapter) because of those donations we make to the food banks. Thank you so much for the recognition!

Family Motor Coach Association (FMCA)

We’ll keep you posted on the next rallies we’ll be attending. Hope to see you there!

De Wafelbakkers Picks Up The Pace

In category: Events Family

Any NASCAR fans out there? Good, us too.

In October, we were honored to sponsor the #81 car at the Dollar General 300, in Charlotte, NC. Check out that sweet hood!

De Wafelbakkers sponsored NASCAR car #81 with Michael McDowell driving

 

Michael McDowell of MacDonald Motor Sports drove our car. He is just 26 and was named 2007 ARCA RE/MAX Series Rookie of the Year before making his NASCAR debut in 2008.

#81 didn’t take the victory lap. But we had a great time and made a lot of new friends. Can’t wait for the next race!
