Masala Waffles Are the Ones Kids Actually Ask For.
700 W · Non-Stick · 5 Settings · Locking Lid.
Ariete's compact waffle maker, and it earns its counter space because it does far more than dessert · sweet and savoury from the same plates — Belgian waffles with syrup, and masala waffles with onion, green chilli and coriander that work as breakfast or an after-school snack · 5 browning settings, so you choose between pale and soft or properly golden and crisp · non-stick plates releasing the waffle in one piece with its grid intact, and wiping clean rather than needing scrubbing · a locking system holding the lid shut for even pressure and tidy storage · 700 W heating quickly and holding temperature when cold batter goes in · compact enough to store in a cupboard · in a striking blue · Italian design from a De'Longhi Group brand
Sweet
& savourynot just a dessert gadget
Most waffle makers get used enthusiastically for a month and then live in a cupboard, because a household can only eat so many sweet waffles. The ones that stay on the counter are the ones that do breakfast too. The same batter base plus finely chopped onion, green chilli, coriander and ajwain gives you a masala waffle — served with green chutney, it's a genuine breakfast or after-school snack rather than a treat. Add cheese and herb, corn and chilli, or a hash-brown potato waffle, and it becomes a weekday appliance. That's the honest test of whether a waffle maker is worth buying, and this one passes it.
Five settings and a locking lid — why waffles come out right
Waffles fail in two predictable ways: pale and soggy, or burnt at the edges and raw in the middle. The 5 browning settings fix the first — you dial in how dark you want it rather than guessing at timing, and once you've found your setting, every batch after that is identical. The locking system fixes the second: it holds the plates closed under even pressure, so the batter contacts the full grid surface and cooks evenly right through instead of puffing the lid open in the middle. It also means the unit latches shut for storage — it can stand on its side in a cupboard rather than sprawling open on the shelf.
Making waffles with what's actually in an Indian kitchen
Most waffle recipes call for buttermilk, which isn't a standard supermarket item here — but the substitute is already in your fridge. Dahi thinned with a little milk gives the same acidity that reacts with baking soda for a light, aerated batter. Maida works exactly like Western plain flour — no substitution needed. For an eggless batter, condensed milk with extra baking powder handles both binding and lift. Two practical notes: preheat for two to three minutes before the first pour so the batter sets on contact, and if you're using jaggery or condensed milk, drop to a lower browning setting — high-sugar batters caramelise fast and can stick even on non-stick.

✨ Build and handling
Never use metal utensils on the plates — a fork or knife scores the non-stick coating, and once it's damaged waffles start tearing on every batch. Wooden or silicone only.
Non-stick means a damp cloth on cooled plates rather than scrubbing baked-on batter — the friction point that stops most people using a waffle maker often.
Enough power that pouring cold batter doesn't crash the plate temperature — which is what produces pale, soft waffles on underpowered machines.
The locking lid lets it stand on its side in a cupboard, so it doesn't need permanent counter space to be worth owning.

Warranty as per Ariete's terms and conditions; duration, plate and coating coverage, parts and labour, exclusions and service process are subject to brand and importer policy — please confirm on the final invoice or warranty documentation. Cooking results, crispness, browning and timing vary with recipe, batter consistency, sugar content, quantity poured, preheating, selected browning setting, voltage and technique. High-sugar or jaggery batters caramelise faster and may need a lower setting. Non-stick coating life is reduced by metal utensils and abrasive cleaning. The appliance becomes hot in use — keep away from children, and allow it to cool fully before cleaning or storing. Do not immerse the unit in water; wipe cooled plates with a damp cloth.
