Long-Life Waffle/Taiyaki Formulation Consultant Needed

I’m developing a truly distinctive Waffle/Taiyaki variety and I need an experienced bakery technologist to turn the concept into a repeatable, scalable formula. The priority is an extended shelf life at ambient temperature without sacrificing taste or texture. Your work will involve: • Creating and testing a complete formulation for this unique Waffle/Taiyaki. • Documenting precise ingredient ratios, mixing/proofing parameters, baking curves, cooling, and packaging recommendations that maximise keeping quality. • Providing shelf-life data (moisture, AW, mold growth benchmarks) from pilot runs or validated models. I’m open on ingredient choices—whole grains, organic flours, or specialty starches are all possibilities—as long as the final product stays soft and safe on the shelf significantly longer than conventional waffles. If you have experience with vacuum cooling, MAP, or clean-label anti-staling systems, please highlight it. Deliverables: a production-ready recipe in bakers-percent format, a concise processing SOP, and a short report on shelf-life test results or predictive calculations. Let’s craft a waffle/Taiyaki that stands out both for flavor and for how long it stays fresh.
