Dorayaki is much love by Doremon and fall into any sinister trap that involve this sweet treat. Dorayaki is a Japanese treat made of pancakes sandwiched with red bean.
On Yogurt in Downtown Vancouver has launched a line of dorayaki sweet sandwiches. There are 5 in total, 3 have their signature rolled gelato and 2 others have other fillings.
- Creme Brulee
- S’More
- Milk Tea Rolled Gelato
- Matcha Rolled Gelato
- Nutella Rolled Gelato
We were invited to give these a try.
Menu
Milk Tea Rolled Gelato
This was our favourite of all the Dorayaki. It has 3 rolled sheets of Milk Tea gelato, black sugar pearls and whipped cream. The taste of the milk tea was really good. Pearls had a good texture as well.
Make sure to eat it fast before the gelato starts melting because it’ll get messy.
Matcha Dorayaki
The matcha dorayaki has matcha rolled gelato, red bean paste, and crispy rice. We found this to be a bit sweet, probably because of the added red bean.
S’more Dorayaki
This has coffee crunch paste, chocolate cereal and the fluffy marshmallow. Definitely one of the sweeter items in this series.
Creme Brûlée Dorayaki
The Creme Brûlée has seasonal fruit and the fruits we had were blueberries and strawberries. Pretty good as well.
Nutella Banana Dorayaki
A classic combination and you can’t go wrong. This has Nutella rolled gelato, Nutella paste and banana.
Milk Tea
Their milk tea rolled gelato is pretty darn good, so we had to get the drink. It normally comes with small pearls, but we asked to have it with the big pearls, which are used for desserts only. Pretty good!
Final Thoughts
Overall, the creative dorayaki is a great idea and it give customers more options. The version with the rolled gelato can melt pretty quickly, so when eating it like a sandwich, you don’t want any of that gelato to melt away or fall out. If you’re a fan of gelato and dorayaki, definitely check it out. We highly recommend the milk tea version of the dorayaki.
