Originally located in Tamatsukuri, this shop has moved to Shibakawa Building in Yodoyabashi, which is designated as an important cultural property of the country. The building has a retro feel and you can really sense its history. I visited just before closing time on a weekday. Inside the shop, there are plenty of chocolates and shortbread on display. I chose the Duck shortbread for its cute appearance. It was delicious in a simple way and would go well with tea. There were various types of chocolates available, and I made my selection based on the origin and cocoa percentage. They were all delicious and paired well with drinks. This shop offers a variety of cute chocolates and shortbread. I would like to try other products if I have the chance.

I visited a famous sweets shop in Yodoyabashi, Osaka for the first time. I went on a weekday afternoon at 3 o'clock and was able to enter immediately without waiting in line. The building is a historical cultural property and looks like something out of the movie Indiana Jones, with an ancient Inca-like appearance. I purchased a chocolate with fruits and cocoa nibs. The combination of pure chocolate with the acidity of the fruits was great! It was delicious.

Takeout Menu: - Milk Chocolate Mandian: ¥290 (tax included) A bite-sized chocolate with a toffee-like sweetness and plum-like fragrance, topped with fruits and nuts that complement the chocolate well. - Shortbread: ¥380 (tax included) A popular gift item, this cute duck-shaped biscuit is made with high-quality Hokkaido flour and butter, offering a crispy and crumbly texture. It does not contain eggs, making it suitable for young children. Thank you for the delicious meal. Thank you, Tikaar by Cacao Mas, for the delicious manju!

I visited the shop in the afternoon on a regular day. I arrived a little after 2:30 pm and there were no other customers. This shop was recently selected as one of the top 100 sweets shops for their chocolate and shortbread. This time, I purchased one item, the "Chocolate Shortbread 6 pieces for 1500 yen." It is a traditional British confectionery with a crispy and crumbly texture. The rich buttery aroma is pleasant, and the sweetness is distinct. The chocolate also has a good presence, and I think it was a good choice to have chocolate chips in it. It was my first time trying shortbread, and I quite liked this type of snack. Although it is a bit pricey at 1500 yen for 6 pieces, I thought it was a flavorful treat. Thank you for the meal.

On August 17, 2023 (Thursday), I tried the dish Fruits & Nuts Bar for ¥510 (tax included). It is a milk chocolate with a toffee-like sweetness and a hint of fruity plum flavor, topped with dried fruits and hazelnuts. It uses 39% cocoa from Vietnam.

I remember going to this building, which I believe was a famous coffee shop. I parked my bicycle in front of the building and found the shop right away. The staff seemed surprised when I entered. They apparently resemble the owner of a few shops next door. Does this shop sell British sweets? I decided to buy the popular No. 1 biscuit for British tea time, paid 1200 yen with a card, and left. I enjoyed it at home. It's not too sweet but delicious. It may look plain, but it's actually quite good.

Located south of Yodoyabashi, "Tikar by Kakao Mass" is a popular shop on the 1st floor of a luxurious Western-style building. Upon opening the door, you are greeted by a magnificent chandelier. The shop is not very spacious, and the showcase is filled with chocolates. Although there was information stating that photography inside the shop was prohibited, I decided to ask for permission since there were no other customers present. I was granted permission to take photos if I intended to make a purchase. I forgot the official names of the chocolates, but the dove-shaped shortbread had a simple flavor that paired well with coffee. My favorite was the lemon peel chocolate, which had a nice balance and did not leave a strange aftertaste. The nut and chocolate combination was also delicious. If you'd like, please save this shop based on my review.

This is a chocolate specialty store located on the first floor of Shibukawa Building. I visited for the first time on a holiday afternoon. Photography is not allowed inside the store. They had stylish Bonbon Chocolates on display. I purchased the Fruit & Nut Bar for 1480 yen. The chocolate was milk chocolate, and the deliciousness was overwhelming. The dried fruits and nuts were plentiful, and each one seemed to be delicious on its own. It was a very delicious chocolate bar.

I went to a bread shop and tried the duck shortbread. It had a British flavor that reminded me of British sweets, with a strong taste of wheat and sugar that is not typically Japanese. I think it would go well with tea or coffee.

This is a chocolate and shortbread shop in Osaka, Tamatsukuri, produced by "Broadhurst" from the UK. The shop is located in the 1927 designated tangible cultural property "Shibukawa Building". The interior design maintains the decorations from the time of construction, giving it a retro European vibe. They offer chocolate and cakes in the showcase, but I went in for the shortbread. The shortbread was rich, crispy, crumbly, with a good balance of sweetness. The chocolate chip cookie had a crunchy texture, reminiscent of British style. They are perfect for gifts. Although this chocolatier is for takeout only, you can enjoy cakes at the pub "the COURT" on the same floor. I look forward to trying it next time. Thank you for the meal.

I used this shop to buy a shortbread as a souvenir when visiting a friend living in Kobe. The price was 1100 yen including tax. I happened to receive products from this shop as a Valentine's return gift before, such as Mandian and Oranget, and I liked the simplicity of the packaging. I thought I would like to buy it for a gift someday. I wanted to use the cafe if I had time, but the historical and stylish buildings in this area are wonderful. I would like to use it again!

Yesterday's sweets were from Tikal Chocolate Shop on the 1st floor of Shibukawa Building in Yodoyabashi. The most popular items are the shortbread and chocolate shortbread, which have a delicious British feel. It seems that they are made in Tamatsukuri and the box has the words "BroadHursts" on it. The shop is filled with cute chocolates. It's a great place! #SweetsUncle

Tabelog 3.66 The building's door is quite stylish. From chocolates priced at 250 yen per piece to a variety of chocolates priced at 350 yen, there are so many options that make you want to buy them all. This time, I purchased some as gifts. (I only eat ultra-thin Pocky, haha) It's fun to choose and think about how happy the recipient will be. ♡ ⚫︎ Two pieces of single piece chocolates with nuts and dried fruits on dark or milk chocolate, each for 250 yen ⚫︎ Milk chocolate with a Nico-chan mark, 350 yen ⚫︎ No. 1 popular duck cookies, 350 yen, and more! The chocolates were wrapped in a cute way! (Even included a cold pack. So thoughtful.) It was a cute chocolate shop. ♡

Gem-like chocolates♡ One for a reward to yourself, and one to relax in between chores. Taking the time to savor the sweetness is the ultimate bliss for women. These chocolates come in cute illustrated designs and unique flavors, making it hard to choose just one to take home! I felt overwhelmed at the store wanting to take them all. It seems like there will be different encounters each season, so I will definitely visit again in winter♡

Located on the first floor of the Shibukawa Building in Yodoyabashi, this shop has a charming atmosphere both inside and out. Run by the popular Tamazo restaurant in Tamatsukuri, you can also purchase baked goods here. I bought two types of chocolate - Madagascar 64% and British-style caramel. Both had a delicious melt-in-your-mouth texture. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I visited the chocolate specialty store because I saw a cake on Tabelog that I wanted to try. It was around 5:50 pm on a weekday, but I couldn't see any cakes in the showcase. They had a frozen cake available as a summer limited parfait, so I bought that. They said you can eat it at your preferred defrosting level. It had raspberries inside and had a light texture, which was delicious. However, the price of 590 yen including tax seemed a bit high to me. I would like to go back to buy a regular cake next time. Thank you for the meal.

Ticaarl by Cacaomass in Yodoyabashi has a rating of 3.67 on Tabelog. It is a chocolate shop that also offers cakes for takeout. I tried the Caramel Milk Chocolate Semifreddo (590 yen), which had a nice balance between the sweetness of caramel milk chocolate and the tartness of raspberries.

On the first floor of the retro building, there is a quiet shop where I received some explanations. I didn't buy the chocolate with a high cocoa content because it was too strong, but the organic honey from Letherwood, Tasmania, the milk from Java, Indonesia (33%), the milk from Venezuela (43%), and the milk chocolate from Ecuador (50%) and Madagascar (64%) were very delicious. The taste was very elegant and seemed to spread in the mouth. It's a taste that can become addictive.

Located a 6-8 minute walk from Yodoyabashi Station, Tikaar by Cacao Mass is a popular sweets shop where you can purchase rich chocolates. Situated in the registered tangible cultural property Shibakawa Building, this small take-out specialty store is perfect for enjoying sweets at home or for buying as gifts. I purchased the popular menu item of 3 chocolates. Although the price is close to 1,500 yen for 3 pieces, the rich sweetness combined with the deliciousness of nuts and liqueur creates a luxurious taste. If you are looking for a sweets shop around Yodoyabashi, be sure to visit. Thank you for the meal!

I visited a chocolate shop that caught my attention. Located between Yodoyabashi and Kitahama, I was drawn to this retro building. Coming out of Yodoyabashi Station exit 11, heading east, you'll find the intriguing retro Shibukawa Building, built in 1927. On the first floor, there's a bar, a bakery, and a café downstairs. I went twice and just peeked through the door during my lunch break. On my third try, I finally went in. I get excited about chocolate shops, but I can only eat simple milk chocolate or ones with nuts. And since it's not Valentine's Day, I hesitate to buy expensive chocolates. The cookies also looked delicious. I was particularly drawn to the shortbread, made with Hokkaido flour and butter, offering a crispy and crumbly texture. It's a treat commonly enjoyed with tea in England. Being a tea lover, I decided to try it. I paid with PayPay and enjoyed it at home with a cup of tea. The shortbread was truly delightful, with a perfect sweetness and texture. I'll consider buying it as a gift for someone or for myself next time.
