窩夫日源自瑞典。
瑞典文「窩夫日」的發音跟「婦女日」相似,而當地的「婦女日」是3月25日,因此3月25日也被定為「窩夫日」。
Waffle 窩夫,又稱為鬆餅、華夫、華夫餅、格子餅、格仔餅、壓花蛋餅,是一種烤餅,源於比利時,用格子鬆餅烘烤模 (waffle iron) 烤成。
烤盤上下兩面呈格子狀,一凹一凸,把倒進去的麵糊(或麵糰)壓出格子來。
Waffle Day is a tradition that is celebrated in Sweden, and to a lesser extent elsewhere, on March 25. Waffles are typically eaten on this day. The name comes from Vårfrudagen ("Our Lady's Day"), which in vernacular Swedish sounds almost like Våffeldagen (waffle day). Our Lady's Day is celebrated on March 25 (nine months before Christmas), the Christian holiday of Annunciation, and the Waffle Day is hence celebrated on the same day although it has no religious connections to Our Lady's Day.
