CrepeMaker Franchise

The Original CrêpeMaker® was established in 1992, an idea conceived in the minds of owners Christopher Hoffman and his wife, Maria Suné upon returning from a vacation in France. As they enjoyed the French crêpes sold on the street carts of Paris, they envisioned an innovative hand held crêpe concept for the streets of South Florida. They created a meal in hand filled with super fresh, delightful food combinations that would satisfy the heartiest of appetites and the sweet tooth.
