The story of Woltje's Bakery begins on October 11, 1799. It is a remarkable story about this bakery, which is located on what used to be called “Jodenlandje” (Jewish Land). The story of Woltje tells that she was introduced to the Dutch stroopwafel in Gouda and decided that she would bake them here too. This is how the Volendam stroopwafel came into being, which is truly different from all other stroopwafels. If you happen to be in Volendam, you should definitely try one for yourself!
This unique bakery also offers many other types of waffles, such as those with chocolate and covered with large pieces of caramel. Each one is a unique treat!
Walk around the museum and step back in time! Here you can try the different stroopwafel flavors. And don't forget the stroopwafel liqueur; one sip and you'll be sold. A ticket to Woltjes always includes your own fresh waffle!
