This is a café that I love and have visited many times! There is plenty of space between the tables, making it easy to have relaxed conversations. The cakes are cute and healthy, so I can enjoy them without feeling guilty. It's also great that you can make online reservations through Tabelog even during the day. As it has become quite popular, it is always crowded on weekends, so I recommend making a reservation before you go!

**A Unique Experience You Can't Find Anywhere Else** A specialty store for body-friendly sweets ⭐︎ Vegan Shortcake ¥1,080 ⭐︎ Jade Lemon ¥715 Opened this January, this dessert shop focuses on treats that are gentle on the body and satisfying for the soul. I've been curious about it for a long time, and finally got to visit! BEYOND SWEETS offers a carefully curated selection of sweets catering to various dietary preferences, using high-quality ingredients and three distinct lines of sweets. - **Shortcake (BEYOND 3)**: Perfect for those who avoid animal-derived ingredients, this vegan option is also suitable for people who can’t consume the 8 major allergens. The cream is made from a base of soy milk and coconut milk, completely free of animal products! The sponge cake is made without wheat flour, using ingredients like white millet, rice flour, and almonds, resulting in a meticulously crafted vegan cake. The coconut flavor is prominent and incredibly refined! This was a taste sensation unlike anything I've had before. The sweetness is mild yet satisfying, with a perfect overall balance that is truly impressive. The ample cream and strawberries left me wanting more! Though the size is on the smaller side, I found myself wishing for double... The price is a bit high, but it's a cake you can't find anywhere else, making it a must-try for shortcake lovers! - **Jade Lemon (BEYOND 2)**: Designed for those with medical needs or athletic lifestyles, this option brings peace of mind to health-focused consumers, featuring ingredients with under 5% sugar. They even pay special attention to the beverages, allowing you to indulge without guilt! The flavor profile consists of green tea and jasmine, blended with lemongrass and peppermint for a delightful herbal tea. You can fully enjoy the taste and aroma of lemon and herbs, making it a perfect pairing with any cake! There's also an array of other beautifully presented desserts crafted from body-friendly ingredients. The newly opened shop is immaculate, with great attention paid to the space itself. They also offer baked goods for takeaway, all of which were delicious! These make for perfect gifts too. One of the highlights is the spacious interior with sofa seating and changing tables, making it easy for parents with children and strollers to visit comfortably. I stopped by on a weekend and was able to walk right in without any wait, so it seems like a hidden gem! I highly recommend visiting before it gets crowded!

I’m glad I arrived during lunchtime because it seems I avoided the crowd. When I mentioned it was my first time, a young staff member kindly explained everything in detail. After some hesitation, I ordered a drink and a cake from the seasonal menu. I was able to take my break as scheduled. My wife seems to really like this place. I’m glad we made a reservation. We'll definitely come again!

The shop had a calming atmosphere, and the open terrace with a stove was lovely. However, visiting in the late afternoon on a Saturday meant that many of the delightful cakes and shortcakes I was looking forward to were sold out, which was a bit disappointing. Despite that, the date cake and carrot cake I chose were incredibly delicious. I was impressed by both the design and silhouette. However, they are quite elegant and small cakes, so they do feel a bit pricey. I think I had jasmine tea with lemon? It was very tasty. It seems that you can get a deal for the second cup. I’d love to try all the different varieties. I’ll definitely come back!

It's best to reserve a healthy cake, hot cafe latte, hot coffee, seasonal shortcake, and tiramisu. The shortcake used corn and was firmer than a regular cake. It was hard, but it crumbled in my mouth. The soy milk cream wasn’t too distinctive and was delicious. The tiramisu was creamy and tasty.

Alright, let's get started! Today, I visited BEYOND SWEETS in Omotesando! This shop is located tucked away in the Omotesando area, but there is a famous sushi restaurant nearby. Since I had some time before visiting that restaurant, I decided to buy some sweets here. True to its name, BEYOND SWEETS aims to go beyond the simple concept of a sweet shop, creating a high-conscious atmosphere typical of Omotesando. It seems that the amount of sugar and the use of animal-based ingredients vary by genre! The nut snacks have a reduced sugar content, but you wouldn't know it from their deliciously fragrant baked goods! They are full of flavor and fit the concept perfectly. The brownie, unfortunately, got a bit crushed during transport, but that might have been partly unavoidable. While I’m not sure of the exact ingredients, it crumbles very easily, which could be due to the absence of animal-based binders. As for the taste, it's simple but allows the chocolate flavor to shine, making it a very Omotesando-like sweet. Being able to enjoy this as a low-calorie option would be delightful! It was truly delicious! Thank you for the wonderful experience!

I was surprised to find that there was seating available. In a way, it was a relief. Since it's located right next to Sushi Masuda, it turned out to be a perfect place to kill some time. The shop is called "beyond sweets," which is quite an intriguing name. It reminds me of the company "Beyond Meat" that gained attention a few years ago and is publicly traded on the NASDAQ. Beyond Meat's flagship product is The Beyond Burger, a plant-based burger patty that closely resembles the look and taste of meat burger products. It's made primarily from mung beans and peas and also includes other products like "Beyond Beef," a ground meat type, and "Beyond Sausage." All of these products are free from antibiotics, genetically modified crops, and gluten. Following their lead, Beyond Sweets offers a selection named beyond 1, 2, and 3, emphasizing gluten-free and no refined sugar options. This is a wonderful challenge that suggests an increase in choices for Japanese people, who tend to have single preferences, and I find it quite appealing. While the coffee is decent, there’s also a plant-based option, which connects to sustainable practices. While this trend is already quite common on the West Coast of America, it is still a minority in Japan. Since taste is a crucial condition for food, the Florentines here are intensely sweet, with a crunchy texture; however, the strident sweetness may be hiding some underlying flavors. The chocolate cake labeled “Choco Noisette” is quite flavorful as well. Of course, the future holds limitless possibilities, and I hope they continue to push forward and take on interesting challenges. If they aim to eliminate all animal products, it might clarify the aesthetic of their offerings. By the way, the American company Beyond Meat, which likely inspired the name, is now available in over 130,000 locations across more than 65 countries and regions—truly a major player. Their strategy to strengthen relationships with major food companies in the U.S. includes a joint venture with PepsiCo and strategic partnerships with Yum Brands and even McDonald's, contributing significantly to the plant-based burger market. Aside from sustainable concepts, with the global competition for food sourcing intensifying, challenges in securing ingredients like butter, cheese, and oils are just around the corner. In this context, I believe that in ten years, plant-based delicious foods will become commonplace in Japan. I'm predicting that they will inevitably hold a market share of about 10% to 20%.

While strolling through Omotesando, I found a place to have some tea. The menu was quite interesting! Each item listed its calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fats. I chose a low-carb cheesecake and a café au lait. The cake was rich and delicious, and the café au lait was also great. The atmosphere of the shop was nice as well. It's a perfect spot to take a break after shopping.

I'm really happy that this gluten-free food is so delicious! There are also some unique drinks, making me excited for my next visit! Since some items sell out, I think it's a good idea to go a bit earlier. It’s pretty relaxed on weekday afternoons, so it's easy to get in!

I was waiting for someone in Omotesando, but I couldn't find a place to enter until I finally arrived here. It's a quiet café tucked away a bit from the main road. The entrance is so stylish that I didn't even know how to open it, haha. The door with the logo turns out to be an automatic door! When I entered the shop, I was informed about the 90-minute limit and that I needed to order drinks and sweets. The staff were all very smooth in their service, making for a comfortable atmosphere. The shop's exterior gave off a sense of luxury that made it a bit intimidating to enter, but once inside, it felt very relaxing. It was a nice sunny day, so I chose a table on the terrace, but the strong winds eventually led to a bit of despair, haha. I ordered: - Date Crisp: 896 yen - Jade Lemon Tea: 715 yen The Date Crisp looked hard at first, but the fork slid right in without crumbling, making it very easy to eat. The crunchy base matched perfectly, and it was absolutely delightful! I was so impressed, it reminded me of the Mont Blanc I had at Angelina in the Palace of Versailles! I would love to bring this as a gift. I used to prefer sweets loaded with white sugar, but it's great to have options like this! I was truly moved.

A hidden café in Omotesando. The terrace seating was very open and spacious. The indoor seating also had plenty of room. It was very helpful that there are limited cafes where you can make reservations during café time on Tabelog. They had a wide variety of cakes, and the pistachio cake in the picture was incredibly rich!

Guilty-Free Sweets Shop & Cafe - When you hear "guilty-free sweets," you might imagine something bulky in appearance or plain in taste. However, this place offers delicate looks and flavors that you wouldn't notice are guilt-free unless someone told you! The prices are a bit higher, but they also provide the PFC (protein, fat, carbohydrates) information on the menu. It's a great spot to enjoy something sweet without feeling guilty! The staff were really nice, too!

This is a shop that sells healthy and cute sweets. I've been curious about it since it opened, and I finally managed to visit. When I opened the menu, I found that all the cakes had calorie counts listed, and they were all very low-calorie! Additionally, there were sections for low-sugar sweets and gluten-free options, which showed their attention to detail. This time, I ordered: *coffee x2, *Paris-Brest, and *cheesecake. The Paris-Brest was of such high quality that it was hard to believe it was low-calorie! The whipped cream had a light sweetness that was very satisfying. As for the cheesecake, when I took a bite, it was rich and had a slight hint of jasmine? It had a sophisticated flavor and was delicious as well ( ˊᵕˋ* ). The staff was friendly, and it has become one of my favorite places! ◎

It's around 1:15 PM on the weekend. The café is just a 2-minute walk from Omotesando Station, located in a very calm area where you can spend a quiet time. It's a hidden gem café. All of the sweets are free from wheat and refined sugars, and there are also gluten-free options available. Some items were already sold out. Sweets with such specific criteria tend to be a bit pricey. Maybe due to the location, there were quite a few foreign customers as well. ◆ Mango Drop (tax included: 935 yen) ◆ Americano (tax included: 660 yen) The fluffy mango-apricot mousse is incredibly smooth and melts in your mouth—inside, there are diced mango pieces and a refreshing sauce made from passion fruit. It was rich and delicious!♡ At the bottom, there's a crunchy meringue topped with dill, which adds a nice flavor accent! The coffee was easy to drink and smooth.

I visited BEYOND SWEETS, which opened in Omotesando in November 2023. This patisserie offers gluten-free sweets. The shop is stylish and spacious, making it a great place for a café visit. Of course, you can also take the cakes home, so you can enjoy them at home too. ◆ Snowy Strawberry Tart ¥1000 It’s amazing that all the cakes in the showcase are wheat flour free. I fell in love with the visual of the snowy strawberry tart and decided to order it. The slightly reddish hue of the snowy strawberries is reminiscent of cherry blossoms, making it beautiful. The gentle sweetness of the strawberries is complemented by a fruity sauce, adding a nice accent. The crispy tart crust seems to be made from soy and almond. The other cakes looked delicious too, so I’d like to try various ones in the future.

I was looking for a cafe open at 10:00 AM in Omotesando and found this place! The interior is quiet, allowing you to relax comfortably. I thought the outdoor terrace would feel nice during the cooler seasons. The gluten-free and sugar-free sweets were stylish and delicious. However, during the summer, the air conditioning was a bit too strong and cold.

It’s surprising how this place in Omotesando is not crowded—it really feels like a hidden gem! It might be a bit pricey because everything is made with healthy ingredients. The banana juice tasted different from regular banana juice made with just bananas. I wonder what else is in it… Is it a different kind of milk? The chocolate cake was not only adorable with its smooth appearance but also very delicious. I’d love to try something else next time!

I visited because I wanted to enjoy some healthy sweets. I believe it was a Beyond 3 type, but I apologize if I'm mistaken. The flavors were gentle and seemed kind to the body, yet still very delicious, which made me very satisfied. I really liked this hidden café. ■Order: Paris-Brest, Iced Coffee

I ordered a cheesecake and an iced date latte. The cheesecake was moist and rich, so delicious that I was surprised with the first bite. I thought I could continue my gluten-free lifestyle with this. Next, I want to try the shortcake.

I visited for the second week in a row. On this day, I chose the baked cheesecake and iced coffee, which seemed to be the most intriguing among the cakes displayed. The total was around ¥1600. The four-person seating inside was mostly occupied. The cheesecake was really to my liking. It’s wonderful to find something that’s cute and delicious while being made without wheat and refined sugar!

This was my first visit. I had the carrot cake and the hot jade lemon tea, which I had been eyeing beforehand. The total was ¥1573. The atmosphere in the shop was great, and the seating was spacious, allowing me to relax. Both the cake and the lemon tea were very delicious! The cake was cute and really uplifting! The hot tea was served not in a pot but in a large cup. I definitely want to try other cakes as well, so I will visit again!

On a weekend afternoon, I found this cafe when I wanted to have some tea. Luckily, there was a seat available, so I didn’t have to wait in line. The display case at the entrance was filled with tempting sweets, and I decided on the rich pistachio dessert! They mentioned that the drinks could be decaf, but I opted for a regular coffee. The pistachio's texture combined with the fluffy mousse was delightful. The sweetness was just mild, making it a gentle flavor. The atmosphere inside is calm and relaxed, making it a hidden gem of a cafe that I highly recommend.
