C’est combien ? means “How much is it?”. If unsure what the price refers to, ask Pour une gaufre ?: “For one waffle?”. You can ask to see it: Vous pouvez montrer le prix ?.
You do not have to guess an unfamiliar number. Ask for repetition or look at the price label. Exercises do not quote a current price at a particular business: the task is to ask and check.
Confirm the whole small order: Une gaufre sans chocolat, s’il vous plaît. D’accord, merci means “OK, thank you”. Finally try ordering without the model sentence in front of you.
