At Nippon Ichi Taiyaki, franchise headquarters training and on-the-job training are conducted as education for grillers.
In addition, the supervisor of the headquarters inspects baking levels once every three months and conducts a certification test about once or twice a year.

Only those who pass this test are registered as a Nippon Ichi Taiyaki griller, and if they do not pass, they cannot become Taiyaki grillers.
That is to provide our customers with the most delicious Taiyaki in Japan.
The certification test is mainly based on the "speed" and "finished condition" of baking Taiyaki and ranks from levels 1 to 6.

A craftsman can pass level 6 after three months of training, but 5 years or more of training is required to become a level 1 craftsman.
A group of Taiyaki craftsmen who have passed this rigorous examination are competing to be the best.
" Nippon Ichi Taiyaki " baked by skilled craftsman. Please enjoy it at least once!
