The focus is on delivering the pleasant simplicity of daily life, complemented by the joy of coffee time paired with delectable baked goods.

Azabu Cheesecake CinqCinq stands out as a cheesecake haven known for its diverse and colorful creations. The Azabu Cheesecake, a customer favorite, distinguishes itself with a rich flavor achieved without wheat flour, using cream cheese, eggs, cream and butter, showcasing Hokkaido-sourced ingredients. Other highlights include the Pumpkin Cheesecake, featuring the unique “Manjiro Kabocha” from Kochi Prefecture, and the Fig Cheesecake with carefully selected domestic figs, a favorite among adults. The Pistachio Cheesecake introduces a nutty twist and the Azabu Soufflé, made with premium French cream cheese, steals the spotlight. Praised on television, this soufflé delights with its airy texture. The Azabu Soufflé’s fine cream and delightful moistness stand out, while the various cheesecakes, despite their dense texture, maintain a balanced flavor profile.

Sablé Michelle

Opening in 2021, Sablé Michelle is a debut sablé (French shortbread) specialty store that embodies the concept of “delicious memories bring happiness.” With a global theme, the store introduces various sablé types inspired by different countries, each encased in a beautifully designed tin featuring flowers and landscapes from around the world. The sablés come in eight flavors, showcasing a remarkable variety with 70 different molds. During the Christmas season, limited edition tins feature motifs like Santa, reindeer and Christmas trees. One of the notable offerings is the “Cake Sablé,” ideal for anniversaries, where sablés are coated in white chocolate, topped with freeze-dried strawberries and adorned with cream-like decorations, resembling a shortcake. Available in both whole cake form and individually wrapped smaller quantities, it offers a convenient alternative for gifting on birthdays when carrying a traditional cake might be challenging. Another delightful creation is the “Fleur Sand Sablé,” featuring sablés sandwiching four types of jam (strawberry, kiwi, blueberry, and apple) shaped like flowers, aptly named “Fleur” for its floral design.

Shiroikuro, meaning “white and black,” is a captivating Japanese confectionery and cafe established in 2012 within a renovated historic house. Specializing in treats crafted from black soybeans, their Kyoto-style kuromame shio daifuku steals the spotlight, featuring salted mochi dumplings filled with delectable black bean paste. The cafe embraces minimalism and serves as a hub for all things Kuromame. The signature Kuromame Shio Daifuku, priced at 200 yen and available in limited quantities, boasts a harmonious blend of soft, elastic skin enveloping a subtly sweet red bean paste, complemented by a delicate touch of salt. Pairing perfectly with mellow black bean tea, it offers a graceful balance. Additionally, the black bean rolls present two enticing options: a white sponge roll embracing rich black bean cream and a surprising black roll with pleasantly tangy cream, offering a refreshing twist. Noteworthy is the black bean chocolate cake, characterized by its raw and bitter allure, providing a unique and satisfying taste experience. Shiroikuro stands as a haven for those seeking traditional Japanese sweets with a modern twist in the heart of Azabujuban.
