    About Our Deliciously Fun Dessert FRANCHISE MODEL

    Serving our customers love with our distinctive waffle cones and ice cream treats.

    Meet Our Founders

    Omar Falaneh and Barra Abousalem grew up as childhood friends. They always knew they wanted to own a business someday together. After graduating from college with degrees in finance and civil engineering, each of the men took jobs in their respective industries while yearning for more.

    While on vacation, Omar and Barra sampled a savory bubble waffle, and inspiration struck. They theorized that a sweeter version would perfectly complement an ice cream treat, and the Eiffel Waffle concept was born. During extensive research and development of flavors and recipes, the duo noticed that upside-down bubble cones looked like towers, hence the name Eiffel Waffle.

    They opened their first Eiffel Waffle shop in 2021, with five more following. The brand has received extensive media recognition from numerous local media outlets and has gained a loyal customer following.

    Now, we are offering protected territories to franchisees so that other parts of the country can experience the joy of our creative dessert options. Join Eiffel Waffle to begin building your own dessert franchise and spreading the love.

    Why Customers LOVE Eiffel Waffle

    “What a delightful experience, such a cute ice cream shop! I had the Crème de la Crème and it was delicious. The bubble waffle cone is such a perfect pairing to the ice cream. I will go back for more flavors and options!!”

    “Cool ice cream place with a twist on the classic waffle cone! They’ve got lots of variations and fun options for all ages! And for those (like me) that are less adventurous, they’ve got many delicious/normal flavors of ice cream too. They’ve got seating inside and outside. I highly recommend!”
