The affable owners at @hvalawafflebar made my dream come true and created this off-the-menu special. Going by their track record of existing flavours, I knew this one would be good, but it turned out even better than I expected. It's AMAZEBALLS.
The whipped peanut butter cream has a fluffy, light-as-air texture that belies the richness of its flavour; I was surprised at the depth of flavour, which apparently comes from a secret ingredient – gula melaka. I also like that the jam they made to pair with this isn't any run-of-the-mill strawberry or raspberry; instead, they made a blackcurrant compote that's got just the right balance of sweetness and tartness. Together with crunchy chopped nuts and that crisp-exteriored, plush-interiored waffle, Hvala has produced yet another winner in my books.
This is available for a limited time only and not listed on the menu, so be sure to ask for it if you want to try it!
