It is an option not only for celebrations around a large cake, but also for smaller gatherings. For birthdays, choosing a whole cake is part of the pleasure. One customer’s post says a free birthday plate was available with a whole cake costing more than 1,500 yen. Check the details in store when you visit, then choose a cake to suit the recipient.

Among the cakes, the caramel nut caught the attention of a customer who said it had been recommended by a member of staff. They enjoyed the balance of generous nuts and cake, describing the flavour as one for grown-up tastes. It could appeal when choosing a birthday favourite or when you fancy something a little different.

For a more casual treat, there is also apple pie. One post put it at 130 yen at the time, describing a handy size and rounded shape that made it easy to eat on the go. The sweet filling was balanced by the pastry, according to the customer. It suits both a cake-shopping occasion and a snack between errands.
