Hakozuka, Natori City, Miyagi Prefecture.
A special Western-style confectionery shop has opened near the quiet residential area of Mejima.
Pensees, a bakery based in Miyagi, was founded with the idea of "adding special smiles to everyday smiles," and Fromage Hakozuka was established to help bring smiles to various everyday situations.
What kind of stories will be woven there?
This time, we will introduce you to Fromage Hakozuka
It's not just about buying and eating! What are the many experiences you can have at Fromage Hakozuka?
Fromage Hakozuka offers a number of special experiences that you won't find at an ordinary Western confectionery shop
The experience you can have at a regular pastry shop is to "buy" and "eat" wonderful baked goods and cakes on the spot.
Of course, Fromage Hakozuka also sells baked goods and cakes, and the attached cafe, Hacoduka, serves sweets and drinks.
So, what kind of special experience can you have that you can't have at a regular pastry shop?
Hakoduka LABO: The first cake-making workshop in the prefecture!
When it comes to girls' future dreams, the two most popular occupations are "cake shop owner" and "pastry chef."
Fromage Hakozuka can actually make that dream come true!
That corner is Hakoduka Labo,
a workshop where you can experience making a one-of-a-kind cake while thinking of someone.
The cake you make is a one-of-a-kind item that only you can make.
There is nothing more satisfying than giving a cake filled with your feelings to someone and sharing it with them.
Children's chef coats are available to rent for free, and chef hats are given as a gift!
This is a recommended attraction for children who dream of becoming pastry chefs!
Please note that reservations are required, with one group per day on weekdays and two groups per day on weekends and holidays
A wonderful day spent on the terrace! Cherry blossoms bloom in the spring!
The interior of the cafe is lovely, but on a nice day, why not enjoy tea on the terrace?
There is also terrace seating at the back of Cafe Hakoduka.
Located near a quiet residential area, the atmosphere on the terrace is also exceptional.
It is the ultimate luxury to enjoy a chat with family, friends, or a significant other while surrounded by the pleasant air and sunshine!
In spring, the Yohkou cherry blossoms in Hakozuka bloom in full bloom, so we recommend relaxing on the terrace while enjoying the cherry blossoms!
By the way, the coffee served at Cafe Hakoduka is made using a special method called a light siphon.
The fantastic light of the halogen lamp used to boil the water is so captivating that you'll be mesmerized just by looking at it!
I actually tried it!
Well, Fromage Hakozuka offers many wonderful experiences, but what does it actually taste like?
If the pastries don't taste good, it will ruin your special day!
So, from here on, I will actually try the pastries at Fromage Hakozuka and give my review of my impressions!
The cream puffs have a moist texture and a rich egg flavor that's addictive!

First, there were the cream puffs sold in the store.
As the name "The Cream Puff" suggests, the taste was simply delicious.
The choux pastry has a moist and delicate texture.
It doesn't use the crispy cookie dough that's popular these days, so you can fully enjoy the flavor of the dough itself.
On the other hand, the cream has a light taste with a moderate sweetness,
which brings out the sweetness of the choux pastry, which has a rich egg flavor.
The choux pastry and cream create an exquisite harmony.
You might become addicted after just one try!
Put a smile on your face with the cheese cookie sandwich "Egao no Oka"!

From the sweets section, we're introducing the cheese cookie sandwich "Egao no Oka"!
This is a cookie sandwich with cheese in between.
The cheese layer is thick and the overall texture is soft.
Although it's called a cookie sandwich, the key is to enjoy its softness and volume, rather than its crispiness.
While most of these sweets are made on the sweet side, Egao no Oka's appeal lies in the saltiness of the cheese. The saltiness
enhances the subtle sweetness to a high degree, so you won't get tired of eating it no matter how many you eat.
The fact that they use a unique cheese is also a key factor in keeping you from getting bored of it.
It was the perfect treat to serve to guests when they came over!
Please also check out Pensee!
Pensees is also located on the premises of Fromage Hakozuka.
After enjoying delicious bread at Pensees, you can have some sweets for dessert, or you can buy some baked goods as a souvenir for a special someone and then munch on some bread on the way home. It would be great to be able to enjoy both bread and sweets in your own way!
