GENERAL INFORMATION
A Rip Van Wafel is a low sugar sandwich cookie. It is a healthier take on the stroopwafel; a traditional Dutch delicacy.
Both the leading cookie in the US and the traditional stroopwafel have ~14g of sugar/serving, are high in empty calories and low in fiber. A Rip Van Wafels rivals in taste but contains anywhere between 3-5g of sugar and 6g of fiber. This is significantly better than both the leading granola bar and breakfast bar brand in the US.
Most people love to have our product as is, savoring every deliciously chewy bite till they’ve devoured the whole wafel. That said our product can be enjoyed in a variety of different ways:
- Paired with a Beverage - The baked and spice flavor notes in our product pair particularly well with a range of coffee & teas. They can be enjoyed in sequence, dunked or warmed over the rim of a hot beverage.
- Topped - Rip Van Wafels can be enjoyed as a more substantial snack. Some of our favorite healthy toppings include: nut butter, icelandic yogurt or coconut yogurt. For indulgent toppings a chocolate or chocolate hazelnut paste is our favorite.
- Dessert - Whether used as a graham cracker replacement for smores, you want to create an ice cream sandwich or crumble our wafels as a topping. Rip Van Wafels makes for a great desert component.;
- Low Sugar Rip Van Wafels come in five delicious flavors: Dutch Caramel & Vanilla, Snickerdoodle, Honey & Oats, Cookies & Cream and Chocolate Brownie. We also offer gluten free versions of our top sellers, Dutch Caramel & Vanilla and Snickerdoodle.
- Low Sugar Rip Van Wafers: These crunchy treats have less sugar, more fiber, and fewer calories, than the leading wafers so you can snack well while living your best life. We have lots great flavors to choose from -- Chocolate Hazelnut, Dark Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry.
- Low Sugar Leos; a classic sandwich cookie re-imagined. A delicious smooth creme sandwiches between two crispy cookies. Available in two different flavors, Cookies & Cream and Golden Vanilla.
- Low Sugar Fruitiful fruit filled bars packed with strawberries are a delicious way to start your day!
We design all of our products in our food lab in our New York-based headquarters. We produce our wafels and wafers in both our Canadian bakery and Dutch facilities. Our Leos are produced in Spain and our Fruitiful are made in The Netherlands.
INGREDIENTS
This is due to a combination of the low sugar levels in our proprietary formula with the boosted sweetness from our use of monk fruit.
We use chicory root fiber, sugar beet fiber, and soluble corn fiber in our products to provide the added boost of prebiotic fiber.
Prebiotics are carbs that cannot be digested by the body. They facilitate the growth of healthy gut bacteria.
