Fruity Cheesecake Waffles

The New IHOP Waffles Feature New York Cheesecake Inside the Dough

— September 10, 2014 — Lifestyle
If you're a fan of the creamy taste of New York cheesecake then you'll love the taste of IHOP's latest sweet breakfast item. The Very Blueberry Cheesecake Waffullicious Waffles offer foodies the chance to devour a waffle cheesecake hybrid no matter how early in the day it is.

IHOP wants to revolutionize the way we see desserts as an after dinner meal item with the creation of a waffle-infused cheesecake. These fruity and creamy waffles are made with a traditional Belgian waffle mix infused with New York-style cheesecake directly into the dough. After the waffles are made ready to order, they are topped with crumbled cheesecake pieces and a delicious blueberry compote. This super sweet breakfast item is perfect for those that like to start their mornings off with a sugary treat.
Trend Themes
1. Cheesecake-infused Food - Restaurants and food brands can experiment with infusing cheesecake into a variety of foods to create unique flavor profiles and generate interest among consumers.
2. Desserts for Breakfast - There is a growing demand for sweet breakfast items, leading to an opportunity for food brands to create innovative desserts infused with breakfast staples like waffles.
3. Creative Waffle Toppings - As seen with the Very Blueberry Cheesecake Waffullicious Waffles, there is an opportunity for restaurants to offer creative and unique toppings for waffles that go beyond the traditional syrup and butter.
Industry Implications
1. Restaurant - Restaurants can offer new menu items that incorporate cheesecake-infused ingredients to keep up with customers' evolving palates.
2. Food Manufacturing - Food manufacturing companies can create cheesecake-infused mixes and batters as a value-added ingredient for other food brands to use in their own unique recipes.
3. Breakfast Food - Breakfast food brands can differentiate themselves by offering unique dessert-inspired breakfast items, such as IHOP's Very Blueberry Cheesecake Waffullicious Waffles.
