Unrelated, but as a Hungarian, this association of waffles with syrup is so odd to see. Syrup is basically just sugar and water, isn’t it? Sounds pretty boring. As a kid we always put nutella on waffles 🤷
Good point. Pesky square-cube law gets me again. Having done three minutes of research on Wikipedia pages I didn’t fully understand, I think changing the square divots to spherical ones will give us the smallest surface area-to-volume ratio.
It’s really volume you care about, for filling with syrup.

We don’t put plain sugar syrup on waffles, we use maple syrup or sometimes a fruit syrup such as blueberry. Maple syrup has a very distinctive flavor.
I checked out your link: this home made syrup is interesting but I’ve never heard of anyone doing this.
thanks, that’s reassuring to know :D maple syrup is good, but imho nutella is better :9
I can imagine that being really good! Hazelnut is under appreciated in the US.
