Case in 60 seconds

The Belgian Waffle Co, with 600+ stores across 190+ cities, wanted its Gourmet Waffle range and summer-special Sundae Combos to stay top-of-mind in tier-1 cities, driving in-store footfall as well as brand affinity.

The campaign turns on matching creator tone to the eating occasion rather than running one message for both products, because the page treats luxury indulgence and a casual weekend craving as different moods needing different stories.

Pulpkey built the burst around mood rather than product features, pairing Gourmet Waffles with luxury dessert narratives and Sundaes with relatable slice-of-life moments, while keeping all of it storytelling-driven and aesthetic-first.

Pulpkey activated 10 food, lifestyle and Gen Z-facing creators across key cities, who made 10 pieces of content using POVs, mood meters and visual flair for Gourmet Waffles and post-work, weekend and spontaneous-craving scenes for Sundaes.

Pulpkey reports 10.54M views, 4.74M reach, 202K total likes, 215K saves, 125K shares and 705 total comments, while the page reports no in-store footfall figure, although the brief named footfall as a goal.

Strategy Breakdown

The primary strategy-learning section — interpretation, not a press-release summary.

Dessert customers in tier-1 cities in India, reached through food, lifestyle and Gen Z-facing creators in key cities.
The brand is cast as the treat for two occasions, a luxury dessert moment and an everyday craving, so The Belgian Waffle Co sits in both indulgent and routine settings rather than one.
Sundae content was built around post-work relaxation, weekend vibes and spontaneous cravings, because unplanned occasions rather than planned outings are where a dessert store picks up footfall.

Why Pulpkey's strategy worked

  1. 1

    Splitting one brand burst by product mood lets each creator brief carry a single emotional register, so a premium line and a casual line can run together rather than blurring into one generic dessert message.

  2. 2

    A retainer relationship shortens casting and ideation because the agency already holds the brand understanding, which is what the page credits for running this burst quickly inside an ongoing influencer program.

  3. 3

    Saves outnumbering likes, 215K against 202K, mark content kept as a reference for a later visit rather than scrolled past, which fits a footfall goal for a physical dessert chain.
