CATCH OF THE WEEK 2010.
AUGUST10
15 August: Irish Coffee, uber yum combination of our coffee batter paired with our irish cream custard (of course, made with Bailey's).
8 August: Almond Apricot. We like the sweetness of the apricots paired with the crunchiness of the almonds. =)
1 August: Magical Mango -- perfect for summer.
JULY10
25 July: Surprising J. for his birthday with Coffee-Caramel, our coffee batter with caramel custard. Great suggestion, D.
18 July: Favourite classic of ours, Matcha (Green Tea).
11 July: M. wanted Red Velvet for his birthday this week -- this request was a bit tricky to translate into taiyaki format, but we finally settled on a cheesecake filling with a red velvet batter (8th type!).
4 July: Third savoury taiyaki of the year for M.'s birthday -- Corn Dog. Who's going to do the taiyaki sundae? =)
JUNE10
27 June: Peanut Butter + Banana. It's a classic favourite around here.
20 June: It's an extra special one as it's our 2nd birthday -- Honey Yuzu Cheesecake! ♥ our cheesecake fillings SO much.
06 June: It's time for a classic flavour, White Chocolate Macadamia is back. =)
MAY10
30 May: M. was sweet enough to treat us to her jalapeno poppers recently. So for her birthday, we've created our own taiyaki riff - Jalapeno Popper, cornbread batter outside with jalapenos, boursin cheese + garlic. Our second savoury taiyaki! Curious to see who tries it with soft serve (vanilla + chocolate this week). Let us know what you think.
23 May: R. wanted Choco-Orange for his birthday. Tweaked it a bit from last time, so it's now an orange custard with chocolate chips in our signature choco-batter. Let us know what you think.
16 May: Oatmeal-Blueberry, blueberries happily paired with our oatmeal batter.
9 May: Marking our 8th batter, Amaretto Coffee, is a pairing of coffee infused batter with an amaretto custard. Made for our mommy with love and Costa Rican Tarrazu-Montes de Oro beans, roasted for us by M. Happy Mother's Day!
2 May: White Chocolate Razzamatazz -- chunks of white chocolate swirled in a raspberry cream custard.

25 April: To celebrate T. turning 21 again, we have Choco-Irish Cream -- choco-GUINNESS batter with Bailey's cream custard.
18 April: Celebrating C.'s birthday this week with Almond-Pear, almond batter (6th one!) + pear brandy infused custard.
