A Taste of Tradition: Isigny Sainte-Mère Shortbread Debuts in Omiya
Starting May 8, 2026,
Cinagro ORGANIC SALAD & CAFE Omiya, operated by
Yakuryo Development Inc., a leading company in organic food production based in Yokohama, Kanagawa, will introduce the much-anticipated limited edition product - the
Isigny Sainte-Mère BIO butter shortbread. This delightful treat has made waves at the British Fair and is now available for customers to enjoy in Omiya.
The shortbread is a tribute to the culinary experiences of Madame Hiromi, reflecting her treasured memories of family journeys through southern England. During her travels, she encountered this exquisite butter in Normandy, a key ingredient that has since become essential in her baking. Its rich and nuanced flavor is derived from the renowned
Isigny Sainte-Mère butter, celebrated for its quality.
Each bite of this shortbread offers a perfect balance of buttery richness and a hint of saltiness that enhances the taste of the wheat flour. Crafted with care, it honors the traditional British recipe while showcasing the supreme quality of its ingredients. The crumbly texture invites a memorable experience, making it an ideal companion for an afternoon tea.
Pairing Options Available
At Cinagro, patrons can elevate their experience by topping the shortbread with organic gelato certified by Italian standards or complementing it with a plant-based muffin. Available in two flavors, the gelato bursts with freshness while mirroring the shortbread's delightful texture. These treats are made from fair-trade, organic ingredients without synthetic colors or fragrances, ensuring a wholesome indulgence that aligns with the cafe’s ethos of making organic food more enjoyable.
Plant-Based Muffins
The homemade plant-based muffins are crafted using organic or pesticide-free ingredients, completely free from animal products like milk and eggs. Guests can select from six varieties to indulge in during tea time, making it a delightful and opulent experience.
Takeaway Treats
Available for takeaway, the Isigny Sainte-Mère BIO butter shortbread comes in a charming package featuring a design inspired by Madame Hiromi's beloved cat, Amer. This delightful three-piece pack was a hit at the British Fair and is now a perfect gift or personal treat.
