What Hans Egstorf is known for
Hans Egstorf has baked stroopwafels in Amsterdam since 1898, still using the original family recipe. The bakery serves them warm at multiple Amsterdam locations and ships them worldwide, with its online range extending to classic tins, boxes and Delft Blue pottery jars filled with stroopwafels and made for gifting.
Hans Egstorf has baked stroopwafels — the thin, waffle-iron-pressed cookies filled with caramel syrup — at its Spuistraat address in Amsterdam since 1898, using what the bakery describes as its original recipe. The business markets itself as the standard-bearer for the stroopwafel and one of the city's oldest bakeries, a claim tied to its more than a century of continuous production at the same central Amsterdam location.
Beyond the classic loose waffle, the bakery packages its stroopwafels in tins, gift boxes and hand-painted Delft Blue pottery containers, aimed partly at visitors looking for a Dutch souvenir alongside the cookies. The bakery ships internationally via DHL Express, including to the US and UK.
Hans Egstorf carries a 4.8-star rating from more than 8,500 Google reviews, and continues to sell warm stroopwafels fresh from its original Amsterdam storefronts alongside its packaged retail line.
