POFFERTGES - (pronounced puff' ur jis)
Poffertjes are a beloved street food in the Netherlands and are commonly found at markets, fairs, and festive gatherings. They are typically made in a specialized cast-iron pan with several circular indentations, called a poffertjes pan, and flipped with a skewer.
Traditionally, poffertjes are served warm with a dusting of powdered sugar, simple syrup and a dollop of butter. However, today, they can also be enjoyed with a variety of toppings such as chocolate sauce, salted caramel, whipped cream, fresh fruit, and even Nutella. Guests can order Traditional Poffertjes or flavors from our "Customer Favorites". We even offer a B.Y.O version for added flavor customization

Origin & History
Poffertjes date back to the 1700s and were initially popular at carnivals and fairs. Some stories suggest their invention by Catholic monks or a street vendor accident. Buckwheat flour was initially used as a cheaper alternative during wheat shortages but now adds a unique nutty flavor. They are a common sight at Dutch street markets, fairs, and festivals.
Fast-forward to 2025, we are excited to bring you this time-honored tradition to Orlando with even more flavors profiles and combinations while still maintaining the integrity of this Dutch Street Food Treat.
