Whether you want to satisfy your inner computer nerd, surprise your friends at brunch, or take the most delicious Instagram shot ever, this keyboard-shaped waffle is totally necessary for happy and hilarious morning. 

If, like us, you're a syrup lover, you're probably wishing this kind of blessing had come much sooner. Because that waffle surface area is absolutely amazing. Syrup. In. Every. Square. Send your maple-syrupy gratitude to Chris Dimino, the designer who thought up the keyboard waffle iron that sizzles these stunning breakfasts.

Through crowd-funding site Kickstarter, Dimino managed to raise enough money to get his quirky appliance into production and into the nationwide retail circuit. 

The keyboard waffle iron will set you back $85, which is a little steep for a breakfast gadget. However, waffle irons can be used to prepare countless other dishes—not just waffles—including quick and easy omelets, making this a surprising investment piece. 

The options for waffle iron cuisine are pretty vast, which is why this iron comes with a recipe book for savory snacks like hash browns and panini, and—of course—plenty of creative waffle concoctions. We're drooling over the sweet-potato-chai rendition.
