Beaver Tails - Yum!

[nwwong]

Does anyone know where I can buy beaver tails in the Toronto/Markham area? Preferably closer to uptown scarborough/markham. I had them once in Mont. Tremblant and they were amazing. I haven't found a place here that has them.

For anyone who doesn't know what they are, they're not real beaver tails. It's a dessert, kinda like a funnel cake except you can have a lot more toppings on it and it's big and flat.

Same here. The garlic one is my favourite

[el_diablo007]

[NDman]

Just wait until the summer and at least you can get it also at CNE

On a similar note, does anyone know if they sell funnel cakes anywhere other than at Wonderland? I love these things, and I hate their prices!

I've seen them at East Side Mario's.

[vinciman1215]

MMmm these look SO yummy!

But I can't get myself to eat something that looks and sounds like a beaver tail! :twisted:

[bananaman]

East Side Mario's has them for like 4.99 or something. Mind you, the funnel cakes are made from frozen batches, not freshly made as you see in Wonderland.

[GateGuardian]

The ones at East Side are nasty.... it taste like those chinese stuff (Hem Geen Bang) but with whip cream on top :S

It's just a fried pastry sprinkled with toppings like cinnamon. Simple but delicious.

Its considered a Delicacy to the Aboriginals.

Philthy McNastys has a funnel cake desert, They're pretty good, although probably frozen like East Side's

[duckdown]

keeping a batter like this 'frozen' is pretty pathetic

its just like any regular donut/other deepfried batter except its sweetened with icing sugar and piped into a vat of oil..

tasty, of course... unique? not in the least...

[skyblue12]

yumm.. i always buy them whenever i got skiing (especially @ mont. tremblant)

Woodbine Centre has them. Located where the rides are. They make them fresh and are really good.

i just had one today at blue. wow they are goooooooood!!!!

just think of them as a big fried donut.


op, if you can't go to a place where they sell em. you can make them at home too, pretty easily actually. just google beaver tail recipe.

[umieesa]

I've tried almost all of the flavours and I'd say the maple walnut is by far the best. I think the zoo location doesn't offer this flavour, but they have it in Blue Mountain.

The dough is whole wheat actually (but then it's fried so it can't really be good for you -- but then again how many healthy things taste good??)!

Personally I would stay away from the cheese? one...they didn't melt it and it tastied kinda nasty...

[sonicspeed]

My favourite is with maple syrup and chocolate sauce.. miss is so much. Ottawa ones are the best !!!

I was trying to find this thing at CNE but couldn't. They have funnel cake though.

Just a side note, some place called "Beaver Tail" "Elephant Ear" instead.

[ernestchi]

i had my first one in ottawa, and they are available year round at street side stands. havent had one since :(

[Phuman]

CNE always have them =p check in the food court lol ....too bad it only comes once a year =(
