Portion of Sales of Taste of Belgium’s Cinnamon Waffle Four-Packs During the Month of August Supports Keep Cincinnati Beautiful
CINCINNATI, Ohio – August 8, 2025 – Keep Cincinnati Beautiful, a local nonprofit dedicated to improving neighborhoods through education, revitalization and environmental stewardship programs, and Taste of Belgium have partnered on a fundraising campaign through the month of August. Taste of Belgium will contribute a portion of sales from its Cinnamon Waffle four-packs for the entire month of August to Keep Cincinnati Beautiful. Taste of Belgium’s Cinnamon Waffle is a house-made, dense Liège-style waffle infused with warm cinnamon spice and a rich, buttery flavor. Four-packs of Cinnamon Waffles are available for purchase at all Taste of Belgium Cincinnati locations and online for $13 per four-pack, with $2 from each sale going directly to Keep Cincinnati Beautiful. Taste of Belgium guests can also choose to round up any purchase at its three Cincinnati bistros or its Findlay Market stand to the nearest dollar to support the local non-profit.
“We have an immense amount of pride in our local community,” said Jean-François Flechet, founder of Taste of Belgium. “Partnering with Keep Cincinnati Beautiful allows us to support the vital work they do to educate, revitalize and care for the neighborhoods we all call home, making Cincinnati a more vibrant place for everyone,” he continued.
Keep Cincinnati Beautiful shared a similar sentiment. “We know the power of community partnerships in driving meaningful change,” said Aaron Fromm, Development Director of Keep Cincinnati Beautiful. “We’re grateful to Taste of Belgium for supporting our mission and the initiatives that build community and foster pride in our neighborhoods. Every Cinnamon Waffle purchased helps us create safer, cleaner, more connected communities right here in the Queen City,” he continued.
