Perfect Pairing: Coffee and Q elasticity Chiffon Cake – A Great Afternoon Tea Choice at Haaya Coffee

Text & Photos byUncle Coffee

This FuaFua Chiffon Cake on the second floor of Banqiao Station is truly something special. Just as "ふわふわ" in Japanese means fluffy, the cake offers an incredibly soft and tender texture.

But I, being a bit mischievous, pressed it down hard, flattening it completely. Yet, this soft chiffon cake stubbornly bounced back to its original shape unyieldingly.

As stated in the product description at the shop, this chiffon cake is made following a recipe from a renowned Japanese baker, perfectly aligning with Haaya Coffee’s original Japanese-style café concept. The commitment to estate-level, self-roasted beans, combined with chiffon cake and Swiss roll, is the philosophy behind “Haaya's White” — to let customers enjoy the original flavors of food, just like pure white.


At “Haaya's White,” you can enjoy Italian-style coffee and single-origin coffee. For Italian coffee, they use a La Marzocco Linea espresso machine paired with an ANFIM grinder, while single-origin coffee is prepared using a KALITA Lighthouse grinder and a smart dripper.

Options include Panamanian Don Diego Farm, Ethiopian Natural Yirgacheffe GUJI, Brazilian Daterra Farm SUNRISE, and Indonesian Sumatra Mandheling Peaberry, with each cup priced at NT$160 for dine-in.

Haaya Coffee has performed excellently in Taiwan’s Barista Competitions, reaching the finals multiple times and even securing second place. They also continue to promote SCAA-certified coffee cupping courses and related programs. With the opening of their new branch on the second floor of Banqiao Station, they aim to help more people discover the beauty of specialty coffee.
