Bring the charm of a Belgian waffle café right to your table with this easy dessert board! Let your guests build their own Belgian style treats with all the tastiest toppings.

Finish it off with a dusting of powdered sugar and voila! It’s a delectable continental dessert experience that lets everyone build their perfect waffle!

Easy, Effortless and Delicious!

This board is such a fun and easy way to serve a crowd effortlessly. No last-minute cooking (who wants to turn on the oven in the summer, anyway?). No fussy prep. Store-bought waffles and toppings make this entertaining staple super approachable without breaking the bank. Just some quick prep slicing fruit, assemble the board, and you’re good to go!

What’s a Liege-Style Waffle?

If you’re not familiar with liege-style waffles, you’re in for a treat! Made with pearl sugar folded into the dough, these waffles develop irresistible caramelized sugar pockets as they cook, creating a crisp, sweet, slightly sticky exterior with a soft, rich, pastry-like center. Traditionally enjoyed warm as Belgian street food, they’re delicious all on their own—but dressed up with sweet toppings, they’re simply irresistible.

Y’all know I’m a fan of the homemade waffle. But in this case, the store-bought ones are so easy and so delicious, there’s no reason to go to so much work. Everything about this board is designed for ease and deliciousness! Simple homemade touches like fresh whipped cream can be a lovely touch, too!

How to Make a Belgian Waffle Dessert Board

1. Place the whipped cream, Nutella, and cookie butter in small bowls around the board, spacing them evenly to create the foundation of your layout.
2. Add the hazelnuts and Biscoff cookie crumbles to mini bowls and place them between the other bowls on the board.
3. Arrange the warmed Liege-style waffles in the center of the board, overlapping and layering them slightly to create height and make them the focal point.
4. Fill in the remaining spaces with the strawberries, followed by the blueberries, Belgian chocolate pieces, raspberries, and banana slices.
5. Finish by tucking fresh mint sprigs throughout the board for pops of color and freshness.
6. Serve with a mini shaker of powdered sugar on the side so everyone can dust their waffle creations.
