Flädle are made by first making plain crepe-style pancakes (Palatschinken), then tightly rolling them up and slicing them into ribbons. They are then usually served in a clear soup or beef broth in a dish of Flädlessuppe. In other parts of Germany, the dish is known as Eierkuchensuppe, derived from the regional name Eierkuchen (lit. "egg cakes") for pancakes.

In Austria a similar dish to Flädle is called Frittaten (from the Italian frittata, "frying"). Frittaten are thicker than Flädle.
