'Taiyaki is a Japanese fish-shaped cake. It imitates the shape of the tai (Japanese red seabream), which it is named after. The most common filling is red bean paste that is made from sweetened azuki beans. Other common fillings may be custard, chocolate, cheese, or sweet potato. Some shops even sell taiyaki with okonomiyaki, gyoza filling, or a sausage inside Ningyo-yaki is very popular in Tokyo Asakusa where you can watch them being baked.Ningyo is the Japanese word for doll, so the name of this sweet reads \"baked dolls\". Ningo-yaki are small cakes baked in small molds and are filled with sweet anko bean paste. Ningyo-yaki are popular souvenirs and it is fun to discover the different shapes made by different shops. At some of the shops you can watch Ningyo-yaki being made and try them fresh.For souvenirs you can buy anything from a single cake to a big decorated box. The cakes will keep for a few days and do not loose their shape.'
