Daelmans Single Jumbo Caramel Wafers, 1.38-Ounce Box (Pack of 36)

I purchased these somewhat accidentally. I meant to move them to my "Save for Later" list. Now I'm so glad I didn't. These are the same brand as the bags of mini waffles at Trader Joes, but so much better.These come in a medium strength cardboard box - meant for store display. Each is individually wrapped. None of them were in the least bit damaged. (Which make them all that much more enjoyable).Each has a bit of caramel seeping out the edges (no stinting on the caramel, no dry bits without caramel!). But the caramel doesn't stick to the wrapper if they have been stored in a cool, dry place (our cupboard could have reached a temp as high as 78 degrees F).Each comes out their wrapper easily - tear at one end of the seam and then across the seam & fold back. You end up with a nice little envelope to hold the cookie. Or you can do as recommended & place the cookie over a warm drink and melt the caramel further. But the caramel is plenty soft enough to enjoy without this.Many years back I had a brief trip to Amsterdam. Along with the many not-so-happy memories (getting a virus and being hit by a slow moving tram - long story), one of my happiest was my search for and purchase of stroopwafels. I was able to find them in a small bakery a couple of blocks from my hotel. Not knowing what I was getting, I only bought a small package. Big mistake! One I have regretted.I have found the small packages of stroopwafels in grocery stores from time-time. They tend to be crumbled around the edges and a bit dry. The little stroopwafels from Trader Joes vary. Sometimes they are great. Sometimes they are crumpled.These stroopwafels are all very fresh. Very crisp, with their chewy centers. They remind me very much of the ones I bought in Amsterdam (identical flavor). Their flavor is well balanced. Sweet, but not candy-bar-sweet.So now I am a happy camper with 36 individually wrapped cookies to take me back to the happier places in Amsterdam (the Art Museums, walks amongst the flowers and the friendly faces).So I will be back for more. I do highly recommend this particular purchase of 36 wafels.

Great taste

No dislikes. Fell in love with these while in Amsterdam recently. So glad to be able to get them here. Arrived in perfect condition and very quickly.

These cookies are the best with coffee or tea. You will love them

The taste is good. But still high in cost.

Don’t buy these, save them all for me. I have tried others and they just don’t compare. This size is perfect to sit on our wide mouth coffee cups filled with steaming coffee. They get warm and soft, then just for added pleasure I flip it over getting both sides soft and a gooey Carmel.

These taste fantastic! Love that they are individually wrapped! Easy to travel with or eat on the go.

My standard lunch treat at work when I worked in Leiden was a 2 pack of Stoopwaffels. These are the 'real thing' that I enjoyed years ago. Nice to be able to get them in sealed 2 packs.
