Eat your heart out

CucinaPro’s Heart-shaped Waffle Maker makes it possible for you to bake a ticker-warming, photo-worthy Valentine’s Day breakfast. To me, serving warm, heart-shaped waffles to children on a chilly winter morning is pretty much the epitome of the recent craze for “hygge” (pronounced hoo-guh), the Scandinavian love for cozy things. If you’re — understandably — not willing to cut short your beauty sleep to wow the kids with a heart-shaped breakfast, that’s OK, because with the help of a Pinterest recipe (just search for “red velvet waffles”!), you’ll be cranking out dessert waffles in no time! Or bake chocolate waffles with a recipe included in the instruction manual (which can be downloaded from https://cucinapro.com/product/classic-heart-waffler). CucinaPro’s waffle maker is stainless steel on the outside and has non-stick baking grids on the inside. Bake your waffles just the way your kids love them with the help of the adjustable browning control. Measuring 7.75-inches wide by 10.75-inches deep by 4.5-inches high, this waffle maker serves up five hearts at a time, making it even easier to share the love.
