Waffles have a rich, centuries-long history. The exact version and date of the original recipe are unknown, but some sources claim that the ancient Greeks and Romans enjoyed this delicacy. The name, still used today, indicates its German origins: "Waffel" translates from German as "cell" or "honeycomb." But this lattice-like pastry became especially popular after the invention of the first waffle iron. On August 24, 1869, American Cornelius Swarthout unveiled his device for baking waffles, already quite popular in America. This sparked a literal waffle boom, and August 24 became an annual Waffle Day in the United States.
