Belgium is known for its chocolate and beer but don’t forget about its waffles! The sugared Liège waffle is the most famous. Legend has it that the recipe was created in the 18th century by the Prince of Liège’s head chef…

Established on the foundations of a historic Liege family home, well-known since the 1930s as Geurts, today the Gofrino business still follows the exact traditional Liege waffle recipe and has also opened it up to new markets.

Transparency, customer satisfaction and confidence in us are at the heart of our DNA.
These commitments are shared by our whole team and define our decision-making, our business requirements and our development as a company.
Every team member commits to our quality charter principles:

• The finest ingredients to make authentic waffles

Gofrino is 100% committed to this fundamental point. We use natural ingredients in all of our recipes, that includes the flour we use, the real butter, fresh eggs and natural yeast; all carefully chosen for their exceptional quality. Our products are guaranteed GM-free, with no additives, preservatives or colouring.

• A controlled production process

The different stages of production, as well as packaging and preservation methods undergo frequent testing in real time to ensure exceptional quality of our fresh and frozen products.

The passion we have for our work brings our values to life; we’re a team united by a shared devotion for our craft. We’re also driven by the taste of quality, by passing on our know-how and sharing the human experience.
