The tasting notes reflect my personal opinion.

Name

Jura Waffel-Gaufrette
Main ingredients are sugar, vegetable fat, wheat flour, low fat cocoa powder (5.7%), dextrose, dried milk products, wheat starch, corn starch, cocoa mass (1%)
Cocoa content: estimated to 6.7% cocoa

Manufacturer

Wernli AG, 4632 Trimbach, Solothurn, Switzerland

Packaging

The little waffle cubes are arrayed into a larger cube, set in a cardboard tray and sealed in plastic wrap with a handy opener.

Look

The cocoa waffles are light brown which is darker than typical ice cream waffles. The filling is dark to middle brown.

Sound

Breaking or biting the waffles makes very loud crunch sound.

Smell

The waffles have a warm smell of roasted hazelnuts and nougat.

Mouthfeel

The waffles feel light and crunchy. The thin waffle coating immediately starts melting and sticks to the tongue. Nevertheless, they maintain crunch and lightness throughout.

Taste

The initial taste is of the airy baked waffles. After the first waffle layer, the filling tastes like sugary sweetness with flavours of nougat.

Aftertaste

The aftertaste is most strongly perceived at the front of the tongue as sugary sweetness but it also includes some roasted hazelnut flavours at the rear of the mouth.

Summary

These waffles are very airy and light, have nice warm smell of roasted nuts. They are crunchy but their flavour is mainly sugary sweetness.

Verdict

The crunch and the smell of the waffles is very promising but their flavour does not live up to that as it is mainly plain sugary sweetness. 1 Star.
