I visited around noon on the day of Obon. There were people waiting, and a few more customers came after me. It's still a popular restaurant. I bought a whole birthday cake on this day (they also write a message on the plate on the spot). Everything looks delicious. I will definitely go back soon!

I visited the shop after a long time to buy some snacks. I bought a strawberry shortcake and pudding for my son. I also tried the cream puff for the first time, and it was delicious with plenty of cream, so I will buy it again next time! The pudding also had a nostalgic taste. I saw a lemon cake on Instagram and wanted to try it, but they didn't have it that day, so I will visit again on a day when they have lemon cake. Thank you for the meal.

On a regular day around 14:00, it was not crowded at all. It's a Western-style confectionery shop that only offers takeout. Located a short walk from JR Tsukamoto Station on a street with not too much foot traffic. They have a variety of baked and fresh sweets. The fresh sweets are colorful and visually appealing. Strawberry mousse for 530 yen including tax. Taste: 3.7. Delicious. Good balance of sweetness. The mousse has a nice firmness. Chocolate almond cookie for 150 yen including tax. Taste: 3.8. Delicious. I want to try the tart next time. Thank you for the meal.

The fruit tarts here allow you to fully enjoy the taste of the ingredients. This time, I tried the white strawberry tart. First, the tart base is not too hard, but moist and delicious. Inside, there is custard cream, topped with whipped cream, but none are too sweet, enhancing the flavor of the fruit. Thank you for the meal.

I discovered this place last year and have already purchased their cakes 4 or 5 times. Last time was for Christmas. I pre-ordered a whole cake for my son's birthday in February. He loves strawberries, so I ordered a cake with only strawberries on top. The cake was packed with strawberries inside as well, and my son was very happy. It's a bit more expensive than the cake shop I used to order from, but it's worth it. Thank you for the delicious cake.

It is located just a short walk from JR Tsukamoto Station. The theme of the restaurant is hedgehogs, with hedgehogs featured throughout the cute interior. I visited about six months ago and the food was delicious, so I bought three small cakes for Christmas. There was a line due to the holiday, but the staff were very polite and provided great service. I plan to make a reservation next year. Thank you for the meal.

There is a cute cake shop in Tsukamoto. The hedgehog logo is very cute. The baked goods set includes palmiers, madeleines, cookies, and more. I especially like the palmiers. They have a buttery aroma and taste delicious.

Today, there were many limited edition cakes that caught my eye, but I finally narrowed it down to two options. - Basque Cheesecake: Priced at 520 yen including tax, this rare character caught my attention. However, it wasn't as amazing as I had hoped. I prefer a dense cheesecake, but this one was on the lighter side. It was moist and had a slightly airy texture. It was quite small in size. - Tart Citron: Priced at 600 yen including tax, this was another rare find. The combination of the meringue on top and the tangy juicy filling at the bottom was a perfect match. I bought it on a hot day, so I wondered if it would be too soft. I tried chilling it, but the meringue didn't get cold (apparently that's normal). The filling was pleasantly gooey and had a strong tangy flavor. It was a perfect summer dessert.

I couldn't forget it, so I went to get the Tart Tatin that is only available on weekends during a certain period in autumn and winter. It had been a while since I last had it, and I love the tartness! But I wondered if it might not be appealing to those who don't like sour flavors. However, I personally love it!! The slightly tangy sweetness is just perfect. I'm not sure if it was particularly sour this year. Also, they changed it from being a whole round tart to a cut type this year. Maybe it's for mass production. The tart base was still delicious as always. As I ate it, the top and the base separated, haha.

Patisserie Gra is a cute shop where you can enjoy delicious tarts with plenty of fruits. Located just a 2-minute walk from the east exit of Tsukamoto Station on the JR Kobe Line and Hankyu Takarazuka Line. The shop has a stylish Nordic exterior and a lovely interior with shelves displaying various baked goods and a showcase filled with sparkling cakes like jewels. Recommended tarts include the Pear Tart (Today's Tart) for 400 yen (tax included), featuring elegant sweetness of pears and a crispy tart crust, and the Fig Tart (limited time only) for 600 yen (tax included), with soft and ripe fig flesh and a delightful texture. Each tart is topped with colorful seasonal fruits, so you can enjoy delicious tarts that are only available for a limited time. In addition to tarts, they also offer cheesecakes, Mont Blanc, pudding, and stylish baked goods, making it a great choice for souvenirs. Thank you for the meal! ＼(^o^)／

◆Caramel Cafe Around 480 yen? The tart is incredibly delicious, but this one is also amazing!!! It was so delicious last time. The top part has a slightly sweet and bitter coffee flavor, while the bottom has a crunchy nut texture that adds to the smooth cream. There are layers of different flavors, but it all comes together beautifully! Despite the name, it's more about the mature coffee flavor, and the highlight is definitely the nuts. ◆Strawberry Tart Around 580 yen? I might have preferred the one I had first (the round strawberry tart instead of the sliced one), even though this review is about how delicious the tart crust is. But overall, this place really excels in having an incredibly tasty tart crust!! The top might be a bit too fresh, causing it to fall apart. The tart crust has a fragrant almond powder flavor, a crispy texture, and a hint of saltiness. I wish they would sell just the tart crust by itself!! This strawberry tart also has walnuts at the back, which is another high point.

◆Pumpkin Mont Blanc Halloween Edition! This is insanely delicious... The smooth pumpkin flavor and rich cream are amazing, and the walnuts on top are great too. The tart base at the bottom is also incredibly tasty. I can't find the right words to describe it, but you really need to try it for yourself. ◆Today's Tart (Pear) Around $4? Hmm, it's okay I guess (laughs). I'm not a big fan of pears, so that might be why...

◆Grape Tart around ¥520? The grape tart had Shine Muscat and Nagano Purple grapes, I think? Personally, I'm not a big fan of Shine Muscat, but the custard and tart base were as delicious as ever! There might have been nuts inside too? The tart base here is truly amazing. ◆Caramel Cafe around ¥480? This was unexpectedly delicious!!! Layers upon layers, with crunchy nuts inside adding a nice touch. Not too sweet, with a hint of coffee flavor spreading softly. I prefer tarts over soft desserts usually, and this one is a must-try.

-Pineapple Tart: 500 yen (excluding tax). Contains sour cream, custard cream, yogurt, and whipped cream. -Lemon Mousse and Rare Cheese: 430 yen (excluding tax). -Cream Puff. -Souffle Fromage: 380 yen (excluding tax).

I have received cakes from "gura" a few times and they were all very delicious. I was curious about what kind of store it is, so one day I decided to visit it myself. The Nordic-style store with abundant use of wood is charming and attractive. I couldn't help but ask, "Can I take a picture of the store?" The cakes are also adorable. A panda cake? How cute is that! I'm definitely buying this and taking it home. Purchased: Panda Cake 430 yen, Vanilla Cookies 130 yen x 2 pieces. According to the store's Facebook page, this panda changes its appearance depending on the season, like dressing up as a lord and lady for Girls' Day, or in a samurai helmet for Children's Day, etc. The outside is made of sweet bean paste, with a fluffy sponge cake, delicate sweet cream, and a whole strawberry inside. It's not just cute, it's also delicious. The cookies are a simple vanilla flavor, but the taste of the ingredients really stands out. They were very delicious. With such a variety, I want to buy different types again. Thank you for the meal.

Tarte Tatin... It's so delicious that I feel like crying... The perfect balance of sweet and sour apple compote with creamy cream, and as always, the deliciousness of the baked base. It's only available for a limited time... I'm not a big fan of pears, but I was drawn to the pear tart because of its appearance (laughs). I don't really like the unique flavor of pears... so why did I eat it, you ask. (laughs)

The pudding is smooth like silk, not too firm or too soft. I think it was 210 yen? So cheap...! It's even cheaper than convenience store premium puddings. It has real vanilla beans in it. The cream puff was delicious too. Despite being cheap, it was crispy and filled with plenty of custard.

Coffee jelly and cherry pie. The coffee jelly has a mature taste. The firm and slightly bitter jelly goes well with the Bavarian cream-like layer and whipped cream. As for the cherry pie, as always, the baked goods are delicious! You can't go wrong with pies and tarts at gura. There's more cherry jam inside than it looks. This cherry pie has quite a generous portion when you actually try it.

A small shop in Tsukamoto with cute hedgehog logos everywhere. I recommend the pudding and baked goods to take out. The pudding is creamy and the baked goods have cute packaging, making them great gifts. Thank you for the meal!

The rare cheesecake has two layers, with blueberry sauce hidden inside. The cookie base has a salty kick, which contrasts nicely with the top layer. It's not monotonous at all. The pineapple coconut tart is just too good. The juicy pineapple flavor shines through, and the tart crust is incredibly delicious.
