Amatsu Mushi Pan
The Amatsu Mushi Pan features a delightful blend of amatsu peel mixed into the dough, topped with sweet amatsu marmalade. This freshly baked steamed bun offers a tangy and slightly bitter flavor that brings forth the nostalgic joys of Japanese taste. Perfectly priced at 172 yen (tax included), it's a delicious snack or treat that is sure to brighten your day.
Lemon Cheese Bread
On the other hand, the Lemon Cheese Bread combines a creamy lemon cheese filling that harmonizes sweet and tangy notes beautifully. The addition of a touch of salt enhances its freshness, resulting in a remarkably refreshing aftertaste. Available for 248 yen (tax included), it's a must-try for those looking to enjoy a light yet satisfying flavor profile.
