"I like to say that our griddle pancakes are toppable and unstoppable," said Belgian Boys CEO Anouck Gotlib, "They are delicious drizzled with syrup, and topped with berries, or as a sweet and savory breakfast sandwich. I am beyond thrilled to bring our new assortment of pancakes to homes across the country—I know they are going to be a big hit with kids and adults alike."
