The last four katakana syllables do say Waffuru which is how they would literally say Waffle with their requirements that all syllables have a vowel (except the “n” syllable). If there is no vowel, they usually fill it with a “u” pronounced like the “oo” in “good”. If the “u” would follow a t, they fill with an “o” instead.

I don’t think they got the first part right though!
