I have been enjoying Voortman Wafer Cookies for as long as I can remember. When I was a little girl, I would pull apart each layer and eat them a bit by bit. Now, I like my wafers with a cup of coffee, or whenever I crave a sweet treat. There are eight yummy flavors to choose from, so there's always a Voortman Wafer Cookie to suit my mood-- though traditionally vanilla is my favorite!
Right now Voortman has a super fun contest that allows your creativity to run wild with Voortman Wafer Cookies! The best part is that you could win $2500 for your submission of either a recipe or structure.

When I heard about the Inspired by Voortman Wafer Contest I knew I had to get in on the fun. I have been on a Mediterranean cruise with my family for the past 10 days and have been inspired by the ship -- which, to me, was a natural choice for a structure make of Voortman Wafer Cookies. I brought 4 packages of Voortman Wafers with me (3 Vanilla and 1 Chocolate) and vanilla icing to create this edible cruise ship for the contest... What do you think!?
Our cruise steward was very curious of my creation, which I put together on our balcony. I thought it was the perfect backdrop for my Voortman Wafer Cruise Ship -- See that blue napkin? Those are the waves!
