In the quaint town of Volendam, nestled along the charming Haven road, we stumbled upon a hidden gem that offers authentic classic Dutch stroopwafels. Woltjes, a cosy shop with a unique combination of a museum and a sweet treat haven, beckoned us with promises of waffle goodness. As avid travellers with a penchant for exploring local flavours, we decided to forgo the traditional stroopwafel and opted for a classic waffle topped with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Our mid-day indulgence turned out to be the perfect pick-me-up during a day trip from Amsterdam.
