Trick-or-Treat Yourself: Where to Get Halloween-Themed Waffles This Weekend

Why Waffles Work So Well for Halloween

A waffle's grid pattern holds toppings in place better than almost any other base, which means it can carry a heavier, more decorated Halloween presentation without falling apart. Whipped cream settles into the pockets, sauces pool instead of sliding off, and fruit stays put, all of which makes a waffle easier to style than a flat pancake or a rolled crepe

1. The Apple Caramel Waffle

Built with apples, caramel, and cinnamon sugar, then finished with whipped cream, this waffle brings the flavor of a fall orchard visit straight to the table. It is one of the most requested items on our Signature CWP menu once the weather cools down.

2. The White or Dark Chocolate Berry Waffle

Loaded with strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries and finished with a chocolate sauce of your choice, this waffle gives you a naturally Halloween-appropriate color scheme, especially with dark chocolate sauce against the bright berries.

3. The Oreo Stack Waffle

Swap the base on our Oreo Stack to waffles for a heartier, black-and-white Halloween dessert with Nutella and whipped cream layered between two chocolate waffles and one vanilla waffle.

4. Build Your Own Halloween Waffle

If none of our Signature CWP combinations match what you are picturing, our Build Your Own CWP menu lets you choose a waffle base, a flavor, a sauce, and fruit or other fillings individually. Popular Halloween-leaning choices include a chocolate waffle base, dark chocolate sauce, and a mix of strawberries and blueberries for a deep red-and-purple palette.
