Bon Appetit

For shortcake, some diners praise the light sponge and balanced sweetness of the cream, making it an appealing choice when a simple cake is in order. Those looking for more fruit have enjoyed the contrast of crisp pastry and juicy blueberries in the blueberry tart.

A fruit tart bought for a birthday was layered with chocolate-coated pastry, a thin sponge, custard cream and fruit. It could be a good option when you are looking for a cake to share, and some customers return for tarts made with seasonal fruit.

For a treat after a meal, there is also crème brûlée, whose surface is caramelised when you buy it. Seasonal offerings listed include Sakura Pudding, combining potato jelly scented with cherry leaves and milk pudding, and Somei Yoshino, with cherry-blossom bean-paste bavarois, cherry sauce and shiratama rice dumplings. These offer combinations beyond the usual cakes.

Bon Appetit is a takeaway shop, suited to picking up a selection of cakes to share at home or choosing a gift.
