Update #3: Thanks for all of the Support

Posted on January 30, 2010

Hi everyone,

Thank you all for your generous support; we've really appreciated all of the backers over the past few weeks. Unfortunately due to a few recent personal events we are going to have to put the Van Wafels project on hold for some time.

Nonetheless, thanks again; and keep on enjoying life ;). Hope to be back with the project in the future!

      Bummer to hear, Erik. However, its better to put it on hold before you get too deep and can't put adequate time towards the project. Good luck with everything!

FYI- Stroopwafels are waffle cookies filled with caramel. These delicious 'things' originated from The Netherlands in the 19th century. They have now been re-invented by Van Wafels.

The Story:

One rainy autumn day in 2008 Erik and I (Abhishek) decided to give stroopwafel cookie making a real go. With a waffle iron in hand and no clue what to do or how to proceed, the process of randomized waffle cookie experimentation began. Trial and error for a year and a half finally lead to the invention of our very own delicious stroopwafel recipe. In fact, Brown students and staff both loved our cookies so much that we set up a waffle cookie sale to see if the we were actually on to something.

We realized our cookies were special and we thought what the heck?...Let's become The Waffle Cookie Company!...and that is how Van Wafels was born.

Fast forwarding to the present, we are now out and about delivering our cookies to cafes in Providence.
