Amsterdam: Traditional Dutch Syrup Waffle Making Workshop

Step into a cozy venue nestled in the charming heart of Amsterdam and allow the aroma of caramel and freshly baked dough to envelop you, setting the stage for a truly authentic Dutch experience. Begin your workshop with an introduction from your instructor, who will share the fascinating history of the stroopwafel, a beloved Dutch specialty since the 18th century. Don your apron and gather around as the guide demonstrates the art of crafting the perfect Stroopwafel—from mixing the dough to the precise cooking technique required to achieve that golden, crispy texture. Then, it’s your turn to get hands-on. Roll out your dough and learn how to cook it to perfection on a traditional iron. Enjoy the highlights of the process: drizzling warm, gooey syrup —the 'stroop'— between the thin waffle layers, sealing the sweet concoction. While your creations cool, enjoy a well-deserved break with a cup of coffee or tea, mingling with fellow baking enthusiasts. Relish the first bite of your own stroopwafel, crisp yet tender, perfectly complemented by your hot beverage. As the workshop draws to a close, pack up one of your stroopwafels to take home, along with new skills and sweet memories.
