The anko one is delicious!

Perfect place to grab a quick, sweet pick-me-up. A single custard pancake is £3.50, with options of vanilla chocolate or matcha!
This stall is placed right in the center of Old Spiralfields Market among the other small food stalls.
A little heavy on the vanilla flavouring, but it was just the right amount of filling! Worth a visit and the staff are super friendly!

Lovely cute bites, I tried 3 flavours: Azuki Bean, Matcha and the Chocolate & Vanilla wheelcakes, all were well-filled (so be gentle when biting in otherwise the filling can squirt out), the fillings were nice and creamy and thick. They were all good but I personally liked the Chocolate & Vanilla one best. I'm curious to try the other flavours available.

Must try the vanilla custard flavour! It?s really good especially when you eat it hot in the cold day.

The staff were friendly and efficient. It was our first time trying wheelcake, I ordered chocolate and custard and my son had the special edition oreo one. They were warm and there was so much filling. The batter, a cross between pancake and a waffle, was delicious. My only regret is that we didn't buy more. We will definitely be back.

Stumbled upon Wheelcake Island during our mini-moon food tour in London and boyyy was I excites when I spotted it!! I love wheelcakes, obanyaki, imagawayaki, whatever you want to call them, I love them. Specially with adzuki(red bean). But I've since tried their custard and special seasonal flavours too like pumpkin!! All great. But red bean remains my favourite. Would recommend the trip, there are a few locations in London but this is the cutest!! I love the frog display so much ???

Hot and tasty cakes with amazing fillings. I went for the Custard one and it was straight from the hot pans. I've been wanting to try this for a while and finally was able to satisfy my cravings.

FLUFFY CAKES FROM TAIWAN ???
? Old Spitalfields Market, London
?? 5/5

? If you?re wandering through Old Spitalfields Market and spot a cute stand with a line, you?ve probably just found @wheelcakeisland ? These pillowy Taiwanese-style pancakes are the ultimate sweet street food treat. Think fluffy, cloud-like cakes with molten fillings that melt in your mouth ??
I went for the chocolate one and WOW! Warm, gooey, rich and totally addictive ? I was so tempted to try the classic red bean too, and next time I?m 100% going for the matcha as well ? These little pockets of happiness are freshly made right in front of you, which makes the experience even better. Super affordable, super cute, and perfect for a sweet bite between market strolls. Definitely save this one for your next foodie adventure! ?

Bought three drinks for the family?Hojicha, Rose, and a Ceremonial Grade Matcha Latte?each priced at £4.50. Unfortunately, all of them were extremely bland, with barely any flavor. The matcha, in particular, was disappointing?no taste at all. I returned the first one and got a replacement but the second was just as bad but the milk was still cold on top. Save your money?don?t bother getting drinks here.

These wheelcakes are a yummy and not overwhelmingly sweet treat. They are slightly crisp on the outside and the matcha custard is subtly sweet, not bitter and delicious. I would recommend and would come back to try the other flavours.

Does not respect too good to go process. Cancels at the very last second. Not very professional at all. Does not care that they wasted our journey there. Will not order from here again. Staff became rude and confrontational.

Very delicious wheelcakes! We had the custard one hot and fresh, and had to go back for more! They're not overly sweet either.

Happy to see real Taiwanese wheelcake in London. Try to go when it's not too busy, I had instances when the dough was not cooked during busy times, I believe the pressure to get the cake out as soon as possible does not help.

Tasty Taiwanese wheelcake treats available here. They're like soft thick pancakes with all types of fillings. I opted for the azuki red bean which was perfect, not too sweet.
