Waffle & Pizzelle Makers

I am new to the idea of Pizzelles but really wanted to try making them. Knowing nothing about them I started reading. I was interested in the product info but especially the reviews. This is the unit I picked. I have no problems with the unit but I did have problems making the batches. I followed the included recipes exactly, making the orange ones and the chocolate ones. It said to use a generous teaspoon of batter but it was so thick that it only pressed down to about a half of the pizzelle size it should have been and I think they were too thick. I had the unit clamped tightly so I don't know how I could have made them flatter. I ended up using a heaping tablespoon to even come close to filling out the design. I also have questions about the amount of butter in the recipe because I had butter grease running out all around the maker when it was closed and cooking. I don't believe these problems are with the pizzelle maker. It performed as I expected. My problems were with the batter which was like a heavy stiff cookie dough. Maybe it is supposed to be but I think it would have worked a little better if it had been not quite as stiff. It also cleans quite easily. Just wipe with paper towels. Overall I am very satisfied with this pizzelle maker. I would recommend it to a friend which I have already done. I will tinker with recipes until I get it right for me."..."  Read more

I make pizelles during the holidays and my old iron was just getting old. I bought one of the Cucina Pro pizzelle irons and it was so easy to use and made such good cookies, that I bought a second one. The only drawback is the size of the cookies. They are a bit smaller than what I am used to. With a second iron, my son and I can both make the cookies and get done faster. The iron heats up fast and even and bakes just perfect. The cleaning is extremely easy, it just wipes clean! The price is very reasonable and I do like the fact that it makes 4 cookies instead of 2. Most other irons make only 2 cookies at a time. Great product!"..."  Read more

My first experience cooking pizzelles wasn't one of headaches and expletives. The PizzellePro delivers consistent results, though you'll have to figure out at which setting you want the pizzelle to cook. Quick and simple for the most part, and clean up was a breeze thanks to the nonstick surface."..."  Read more
