Inspired by time spent living in South Africa, Jafflz CEO and founder Meryl Van Der Merwe is now introducing frozen, handheld sandwich pockets that are convenient, all-natural and full of flavor. The circular sandwich pouches are free from preservatives and are offered in both sweet and savory options like Apple Pie and Mac & Cheese. As such, the gourmet toasted pockets can easily be consumed for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack or dessert, depending on whether one feels like enjoying a breaded pocket filled with eggs, cheese and vegetable pieces or bananas with a nut-free chocolate sunflower spread.
Each "Jaffle" is made with a base of wheat bread and boasts a distinctive swirled pattern due to the way it is pressed and toasted with the use of a jaffle pie iron.
