A waffle maker is an essential cookware appliance used to make waffles. It usually consists of two hinged metal plates molded to create the square shapes on waffles. The waffle batter is poured between the plates of the waffle maker and heated to make the waffle. Commonly, the waffle makers come with an internal heating element, although waffle iron makers exist that do not depend on electricity; they generally are held over an open flame. Waffle makers are small and fit in any size of the kitchen. The waffle makers are also easy to maintain. Different waffle makers are available in the market based on shape, size, materials, and range.

Waffles are now being consumed as a traditional breakfast item and a popular snack and dessert option, leading to increased sales of waffle makers.
