Putting Petite Waffle Cakes on your menu? Here’s where it sells and how it works at volume.

Best for: Catering, receptions
The moment: Birthdays, showers, office parties
Why it works for you: Bite-size dessert squares from 4 waffles; no baking.
Menu it as: Bite-size Belgian waffle cakes with assorted toppings

Batch & prep ahead: Warm and cut the waffles before service. Portion the toppings into small containers so the squares can be finished quickly.
Hold & serve: The mascarpone whipped cream holds on a tray far longer than plain whipped cream. Top the squares close to service; the waffles are served at room temperature, so no hot holding is needed.
Plating: Line them up on a long platter or a tiered stand, alternating toppings for color.
Holding: Hold the whipped cream cold at 41°F or below until the trays go out.
Pack options: For volume, Large Butter Liège waffles also come unwrapped in a Bulk Pack.
