Introduction
Blackball was drawn from the idea of 'Xian Cao' being black in colour and taro 'balls'. 'Xian Cao' is a key inclusion in most traditional desserts across Taiwan. The company was founded and created by Mr. Tang in 2006 and is now one of the biggest dessert chains in Taipei with more than 20 outlets. It has also expanded to Malaysia and Singapore.

Signature Dishes
Pass by this dessert stall and saw the long queue and decided to give it a try. I have bought their BlackBall Signature under the take away packaging. The black balls,including the tapioca balls, yam balls are all very chewy and not too sweet. The black jelly inside, which taste quite similar to the grassjelly, is also not too sweet too. The icy texture does not bring much special taste to it, just like normal ice kachang. At the price of $4.95 per bowl, is cheap and affordable. The stall is neat and staffs are quite pleasant and good.

On a sweltering day, what I can recommend is BlackBall, a Taiwanese chain that serves up Taiwanese desserts. I really like them and therefore happy that there are now several branches in Singapore. I always order their best-selling classic that has a bowl of grass jelly with different types of ingredients like yam balls and red beans. You must add milk to it (see picture) because that adds much flavour to it. Forget dieting.
