4 Best Waffle Toppings

Belgian Chocolate-Fudge Sauce

No waffle is complete without a delicious topping, especially the crispy, indulgent waffle ironed-cinnamon rolls featured in this week's episode of Mad Genius Tips! Here, four of Food & Wine's best toppings that will complete any wonderful waffle stack.

1. Perfect Blueberry Syrup

A huge virtue of homemade syrup is that, unlike the store-bought kind, it can taste much more like fruit than sugar.

2. Belgian Chocolate-Fudge Sauce

This rich sauce is a perfect topping for crispy, classic Belgian waffles.

3. Stone-Fruit Butter

Fruit butters are made with less sugar than jam, so they have a less candied fruit flavor. The yield here will vary slightly; when the fruit is especially juicy, there is more water to evaporate before the butter thickens, and the yield is smaller.

4. Bourbon Whipped Cream

Brandy will also do the trick here.
