About this place
The showcase at CIEL in Hatanodai is lined with chilled cakes and baked treats made for everyday snacking. A standout recommendation of the day is the baked custard pudding made with Okukuji eggs, featuring a firm, traditional texture and the straightforward, rich character of quality eggs.
The cake selection includes nostalgic favorites like the original buttercream cake, alongside approachable combinations such as milk tea cake, coffee with walnut, and matcha with azuki red bean. Options like light, moderately sweet gâteau au chocolat and cheesecake also highlight gentle, natural flavors.
A variety of long-life baked goods and chocolates is also available. Nutty options like the five-nut financier—blending almonds, hazelnuts, black sesame, and more—along with fermented-butter sun madeleines, chocolate nut brownies, and tigrés, make suitable gifts or simple tea pairings. Shelves also feature red berry and lemon sliced baton cakes offering bright fruit acidity, as well as chocolates like macadamia chocolate.
Operating as a dedicated takeaway shop with no dine-in seating, the store accepts cash only. Remaining open until 21:00 in the evening, it provides a convenient stop for picking up treats on the way home from work or an outing.
