What is Taiyaki?

Taiyaki is a Japanese fish-shaped cake that is often filled with red bean paste, custard, or chocolate. The cake batter is poured into a mold in the shape of a carp, and the filling is added before the mold is closed. Taiyaki originated in Osaka, but can now be found all over Japan. It is a popular street food and can even be found in some convenience stores.

Taiyaki first became popular in the Meiji period and they were originally made using an eel-shaped mold. Nowadays, taiyaki is made in all sorts of different shapes, including animals, cartoon characters, and even Hello Kitty!

Taiyaki first became popular during the Meiji period in Japan (1868-1912). The original taiyaki was made using an eel-shaped mold and they were filled with red bean paste or custard. Taiyaki was inspired by yatai, which are mobile food stalls that sell a variety of different foods such as dumplings, noodles, and tempura. Yatai were very popular during the Meiji period and they were often found near temples or shrines. Taiyaki were originally sold by yatai, but now they can be found at most Japanese bakeries. Taiyaki first became popular during the Meiji period in Japan (1868-1912).
