About this Event

🔥 WAFFLE WARS – CHAPTER CHALLENGE 🔥

Come compete or just watch the action - Get ready for the ultimate waffle showdown! Waffle Wars brings chefs head‑to‑head in a fast‑paced, high‑energy competition where creativity meets crunch.

Chefs will battle through three intense rounds, each featuring four contestants racing against the clock. With only 15 minutes to review ingredients and plate their creations, every second counts. The star of the show? The Hartybake Waffle — savory or sweet — transformed into a dessert masterpiece using a shared pantry of sauces, garnishes, textures, and chef-driven imagination.

Each contestant presents two plates: ✨ One for the Judges ✨ One for the Fan Favorite Vote

Judging is based on creativity, flavor balance, technical execution, and visual appeal — and yes, the judges’ decisions are final. But the crowd gets in on the action too: the Fan Favorite Award goes to the waffle that wins the hearts (and votes) of attendees.

Chef tools are welcome, but no outside ingredients allowed. Awards are presented immediately after the contest, so stick around to celebrate the champions!
