Flutes Chocolate: Why Choose the Homemade Alternative?
Flutes chocolate has always held a special place in the hearts of chocolate lovers, with its light texture and crispy wafer consistency. Despite the product's popularity and demand, it suffers from two main drawbacks: high price, which makes it unsuitable for daily consumption or large quantities, and unhealthy ingredients due to its content of processed materials. Therefore, I am happy to offer you two alternative recipes, whether you prefer the egg white recipe or need an egg-free recipe, so you can make large quantities at an incomparable economical cost!
First: Wafer Using Egg White
Ingredients (Yields approximately 20 pieces):
Method:
- Whisk the egg whites with sugar and salt using an electric or hand whisk until a thick, stable foam forms.
- Add the flour and cornstarch and gently fold from bottom to top to maintain the foam volume.
- Pour in the oil and mix until it disappears completely, and add the vanilla at the end.
Cooking and Shaping:
- In a cold, non-stick pan, pour one spoon of the batter and spread it slightly with the spoon over medium heat.
- After the dough sets, flip the wafer to the other side for only 5 seconds.
- Immediately roll the hot wafer onto a wooden, metal, or thick plastic rod (to take the shape of a tube).
- Cool the pan with ice water and dry it before making the next piece, or use another cold pan and switch between two pans (this step is crucial for the wafer's success).
- After making the entire batch, place them in a preheated oven at $175^\circ \text{C}$ for 7 minutes to achieve the best crispness.
Second: Chocolate Wafer Egg-Free Recipe
Ingredients:
Method:
- Sift the flour with the cocoa, sugar, baking powder, salt, and coffee (coffee is optional).
- Add the oil, warm milk, and a small teaspoon of vanilla, and mix well until you get a homogeneous mixture.
- If the consistency is light, add a little more flour (the desired consistency is a slightly thick liquid batter, like thick crepe batter).
- If the consistency is too thick, thin it with one or more spoons of warm milk.
Cooking and Shaping:
(Follow the same cooking and shaping steps mentioned in the first recipe):
- In a cold, non-stick pan, pour one spoon of the batter and spread it slightly over medium heat.
- After the dough sets, flip the wafer for 5 seconds.
- Immediately roll the dough onto the shaping rod.
- Cool or swap the pan before making the next piece.
- Place the entire batch in a preheated oven at $175^\circ \text{C}$ for 7 minutes.
Filling and Serving Suggestions: For Added Excellence!
The secret to the authentic Flutes taste lies in its creamy filling. For the filling, you can use any of the following: Chocolate spread (hazelnut chocolate or its economical alternative), peanut butter, pistachio butter, or Lotus cream. You can also melt raw chocolate and dip the ends of the wafer in it before serving.

Nutritional Value (Approximate)
These recipes are considered a healthier alternative to processed products. One wafer piece (before filling) contains significantly fewer calories compared to the commercial product. You can control the type of sugar and fat to increase the healthy quality.
Medical Alert! (For Allergy Sufferers)
If you suffer from egg allergy, choose the second recipe (egg-free wafer). If you have a gluten allergy, try replacing the flour with rice flour or a gluten-free flour blend (the texture may change slightly).
