What Is “Taiyaki Warashibe”?
“Taiyaki Warashibe” is a taiyaki specialty shop that originated in Ise-Shima, Mie. Their taiyaki is made with “Ayahikari” wheat from Mie Prefecture, giving it a distinctive chewy texture.
In addition to classic taiyaki, they also seem to offer cute round “Wa no Taiyaki” and Ise’s local specialty “Warashibe Panju.” Their standard fillings include tsubuan, Ogura an, no filling, pudding, and custard, with seasonal fillings appearing as well~

Final Thoughts
The notice says they’re “selling one every five seconds,” so it sounds like they’re pretty popular. Personally, the round “Wa no Taiyaki” looks so cute that I really want to try it~ They’re set to open in late May, so it’ll be exciting to wait for!
