Ambiano Mini Belgian Waffle Maker

EDITOR’S NOTE: Updated for 2026. 

Waffles are a classic favorite for breakfast or brunch, and nothing is better than fresh, hot homemade waffles. The waffle-making station is one of my favorite things about hotel breakfast buffets, but you don’t have to stay in a hotel to get good waffles. You can buy an inexpensive waffle maker to use on your own kitchen counter.

Aldi has sold various waffle makers over the years, and I own one. My family likes to use Aunt Maple’s Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle Mix or Aunt Maple’s Protein Pancake and Waffle Mix in our waffle maker, and we top our waffles with Aunt Maple’s Syrup or Specially Selected 100% Pure Maple Syrup.

Sometimes Aldi sells mini waffle makers in holiday designs during the winter. Additionally, Aldi occasionally sells more traditional everyday mini waffle makers for people who want pint-sized bites of doughy breakfast goodness.

What We Know:

The Ambiano Mini Belgian Waffle Maker cost $7.99 each in March of 2026. That’s the same price they cost in 2024, and it’s $1 less than the $8.99 they each sold for in March of 2021. That’s less than most other mini waffle makers on Amazon.

This is an Aldi Find, which means it’s only in stores for a short time. Each store should receive one shipment, and after that sells out, it’s gone until whenever Aldi decides to bring it back. Aldi does not offer online ordering for its specials once they sell out at your local store, so if you want one of these, you’ll need to act quickly.

In 2026, the mini Belgian waffle maker comes in blue, purple, or turquoise.

Here’s more information about the 2026 mini waffle maker:

• Compact design for quick and efficient waffle making
• Features cool-touch handles for safe operation
• Dual-side cooking surface
• Two non-stick coating plates
• Power indicator light and cable winding function for convenience and tidy storage

Aldi has not specified what size of mini waffles these make, but previous Aldi mini waffles makers produce waffles that are 4 inches in diameter.

Previous mini waffle makers from Aldi have come with three-year warranties, but Aldi has not yet published information about whether the 2026 mini waffle makers have any kind of warranty.

This waffle maker is sold under the Ambiano brand. That’s not a manufacturer. It’s the name Aldi puts on kitchen products it sells, which it sources from different suppliers.
