It is a very versatile addition to any kitchen. The 180 degree back and forth rotating feature ensures that the batter is evenly distributed and the results will be uniform. The temperature gauge on the top of the machine allows for experimentation with texture so anyone can create a light, airy waffle or a crispy, crunchy one, whichever they prefer. A very distinctive feature of this waffle maker is that the waffle plates are easily interchangeable with a variety of eight different types of waffle plates, each with its own distinct shape and function. The waffle maker comes with the Belgium/Liège waffle plate installed. The additional plates that are available include a traditional American waffle plate, a heart-shaped waffle plate, an ice cream waffle cone plate, a Croque-Monsieur plate, a stuffed waffle plate and more. Each dishwasher-safe cast aluminum plate is produced with a non-stick coating that allows for the waffle to be removed effortlessly. Croquade's first waffle maker was invented in 1958 and presented that same year at the World Exhibition in Brussels. This compact waffle maker, inspired by professional waffle makers, was a real revolution as people usually ate waffles in the street or at the fair. With this new product, every domestic kitchen could now have its own waffle maker. This specific device has been the best-selling waffle maker in the country since its launch. "Over a million of our 50-year-old waffle makers have been sold on the Belgian market alone, which is roughly the size of New York City," explains Sébastien Frédérich and Gautier Rouyer, Croquade's Chief Executive Officers.
