A shop selling baked goods located north of the Kawaramachi Marutamachi intersection. I visited for the first time on a weekend afternoon. They specialize in takeout. ○ Kumquat cake 260 yen ○ Madeleine 260 yen ○ Financier pistachio 260 yen ○ Chocolate chip cookie ○ Lemon cookie 250 yen ○ Button cookie 150 yen I tried the button cookie. It's cute with a button-like shape. Crispy, crumbly, and fragrant. It was a very delicious cookie.

The exterior of the shop is cute and small♪♪ Inside, there are many cute baked goods. It's a lovely shop with a gentle and warm atmosphere, though not flashy. I heard their canelés are delicious, so I bought one each of the mini canelés (vanilla, chocolate, matcha, hojicha). The price seems to have gone up, now 110 yen each. Still, it's quite affordable! When I got home, I immediately took a bite. The outside is crispy! The inside is moist and chewy. So delicious♡ It's been a while since I've had canelés this crispy. They were all gently sweet, but the vanilla and matcha were especially delicious. It's a hidden gem of a shop. I'd like to go back to buy other sweets as well.

Passing by the shop, there is a nice smell. I bought cookies to give as gifts. I wanted to buy more things, but it adds up, so I had to resist (crying). The canelés also looked delicious... I think it's a reasonably priced shop among the bakeries.

(From a blog post) Today, I went to a confectionery shop located near Arashimikado on the east side of the Kyoto Imperial Palace. ■ Sampo Confectionery Workshop was located facing Kawaramachi Street. Inside the shop, there were many baked sweets lined up. The cute baked sweets were individually packaged, giving the impression that you could buy them in small quantities. There were many items in the 100 yen and 200 yen range, making it easy to choose. The shop also had a workshop where items like canelés and tarts were sold. This time, I bought some baked sweets and enjoyed them as snacks. ● Cookie Cutouts: Two types of bear-shaped cookies with a light and fluffy texture. I might like these! ● Button Cookies: Round button-shaped cookies with a dense and firm texture, with a good flavor of wheat and butter. ● Sparkling Lemon Cookies: These are cute star-shaped icing cookies with a refreshing lemon flavor. They had a nice volume for a snack. It's nice that you can easily buy them in small quantities. (^-^)

Located a 10-12 minute walk from Jingu Marutamachi Station is the pastry shop sampo. This sweets shop offers a wide range of treats, from long-lasting baked goods to same-day pastries. It seems to be run by a female owner. The display is filled with delicious canelés and baked goods, each one showcasing the owner's love for baking through detailed descriptions. I purchased the popular Milriton de Rouen this time. This simple and universally appealing pastry is made by layering crispy pie crust and baking it. It's the owner's recommended treat, and the crispy texture, along with the gentle sweetness oozing from the inside, was fantastic. This pastry maximizes the deliciousness of butter and sugar! If you're looking to buy pastries in the vicinity of Demachiyanagi, be sure to pay a visit. Thank you for the meal! *Instagram Gourmet Account https://www.instagram.com/shunsuke.naka/ (over 10,000 followers!)

A stroll in Kyoto to celebrate my son's advancement in studies. On this day, a sudden canelé journey took place, and the second stop was here. [Summary] Petit canelés [vanilla, chocolate, matcha, hojicha] each 100 yen. Approximately 15mm in diameter, 20mm in height, bite-sized canelés. Since they are small, the texture is quite concentrated. Best consumed on the day of purchase. The refreshing feeling of vanilla herb is subtle, with a gentle flavor. The chocolate vanilla tastes like adding milk chocolate. Not too bitter or rich. Matcha canelé goes well with matcha. With a strong buttery flavor, it is close in taste to matcha chocolate. Hojicha has a fragrant roasted tea aroma that spreads throughout the mouth. From start to finish, the mouth is filled with hojicha.

When a friend who is coming to Kansai after a long time, I was considering traditional Japanese sweets and famous sweets from well-known stores as a gift, but in order to let them know the taste of a shop that I love in Kyoto, I struggled a lot. I couldn't decide between Kimura, Agreable, and Sampo, but eventually chose Sampo based on today's schedule. Planning to carry and hand over, I thought about the last time when the [Galette Bretonne] for 200 yen ⭐︎4.0 was exquisite, with a mature flavor enhanced by rum. I will get the [Maple Financier] for 250 yen for my friend, and of course, I will have some pastries for myself on the day. Since it was canelé last time, I made a reservation for a tart over the phone in advance. This week, they will be baking blueberry and banana tarts, so I reserved one of each in advance. When I visited around 1 p.m. on a weekday, there was only one tart left, and it seemed like they were out of canelé. You can buy various types of long-lasting baked goods in small quantities. The tarts were each 430 yen ⭐︎3.6. The crispy butter-rich crust could have had a bit more buttery aroma or almond flavor coming through. It was more lightly sweetened than my preference, but the sweetness was enhanced by the inclusion of berries or bananas baked in. Perhaps they are balancing the sweetness addition and subtraction. Additionally, I got the [Sablé Diamant] for 98 yen, where the flavor of fermented butter is accented by lemon. The following products are priced at 160 yen or 190 yen: [Florentin] with caramel where orange peel and dried cherries are quite pronounced, but the caramel part was slightly nougat-like, which was a bit different from my taste. [Croquant] with hazelnuts and almonds, among the croquant types I've tried, this one had a firm texture. [Dressé Vanille] ⭐︎3.9, with a crispy rich cookie with a addictive scent of fermented butter and vanilla. Besides the Galette Bretonne, this was my favorite taste. Since there is only one female shop owner, making a reservation is smooth. And if you can visit along with Bon Volanté, the wood-fired bread shop, you will feel a great sense of fulfillment.

Matcha Boulangerie ○... The matcha flavor is in the powdered sugar coating on the outside, not in the dough, which is plain inside. Slightly matcha-flavored Boulangerie Plain ◎... A normal type with finely chopped walnuts in addition to almonds inside.

If you go up Kawaramachi Marutamachi from Keihan Kamigyo Marutamachi, just before Arakamiguchi on the east side past Bon Volant, there is a shop that has been introduced by Kotatsu Han on YouTube and highly rated by a food log reviewer I follow, so I was curious. 【Canelé Large】290 yen ⭐︎4.0 There is also a small canelé for 100 yen. There were about four flavors. The outside is crispy with a deep flavor, while the inside is chewy with a maximum sense of happiness from rum and vanilla. Highly recommended. 【Galette Bretonne】190 yen ⭐︎4.3 The size is medium. Both the rum and sweetness are strong. It has a fine texture and melts easily in the mouth, providing a very cost-effective satisfaction. In fact, I had my family try Galette Bretonne from KIMURA and Assemblage Kakimoto without revealing the shop names. The top choice was Sampo-san. I couldn't decide on a top choice as they were all my favorites, each shop offering unique and wonderful flavors. 【Maple Financier】240 yen ⭐︎3.9 A small financier with four pieces. Despite its small size, it is juicy. 【Button Cookie】⭐︎3.4 I feel like I could make something like this, but - professionals are different after all. A cookie with a homely taste, serving as a model for cookie making.

I discovered a very charming shop! It's not a cake shop, but it's definitely a sweets shop - the interior has a lovely atmosphere, and you can feel the owner's attention to detail in every corner. I instantly fell in love with it. They only had three items left near closing time, so I made my choice with determination! A Far Breton! What's that?? It's my first time hearing about it - delicious! It's so tasty! The Far Breton is incredibly delicious! It's baked hard on the outside, but the inside is gooey like pudding. This is definitely a shop that will continue to receive high ratings in the future~

This is a post with a time difference. The visit date may not necessarily match the posting date. Discovered on the way back after being turned away by LAND. There were Linzertorte and other options, but I hesitated to try something adventurous and opted for something else. The "Canele" for 290 yen didn't have a strong contrast between the chewy and crispy textures. I avoided the mini-sized Canele, but still felt like the size was lacking. The "Daily Quiche" for 420 yen was enjoyed without being heated up. The main flavor was more of the pie crust than the filling. It was much better than the previous shop. Thank you for the meal.

This is a patisserie located on Marutamachi Street. The Apricot and Black Tea Tart (¥400) has a strong presence with its crunchy apricot flesh and rich tea flavor. The crust is crispy on the outside, slightly sweet and moist on the inside, truly exemplary. It was delicious! Thank you for the meal!

I was planning to go to a bakery near Arakamiguchi, but then I remembered there was a sweet shop nearby. So, I changed my plans and went to this shop. I bought Linzertorte, Mille-feuille, nut tart, and Engadine. I also bought some pound cake. The Linzertorte was delicious with the tartness of red fruit jam. The Mille-feuille had a simple taste, but since I arrived late, the selection was a bit limited. I'd like to go to the shop a bit earlier next time and try more variety of pastries.

I stopped by here after a long time. They have various flavors of petite canelés (each 98 yen), such as vanilla, chocolate, hojicha (roasted green tea), and matcha. I also tried their tarte tatin (485 yen) made with red apples baked until they are quite tender. They sell fruit cakes and pound cakes that are baked small and carefully, with delicious flavors. Once again, I realized how tasty their pastries are. It's a great place to pick up something to give to someone!

On this day, my main goal was to try the Salsiccia Deli, and I took a route from Marutamachi subway station, strolling through the Imperial Palace and heading towards Kawaramachi. One of the reasons was this restaurant. Next to it is a renowned bakery, but it was closed on Sundays. However, a charming cookie shop was open. I thought about getting cookies, but I ended up choosing the matcha financiers that caught my eye. I had it this morning, and it was still moist and very delicious. I plan to stop by here again following the same route next time. I want to recommend this as a gourmet walking course in Kyoto for everyone.
