Indulge in Autumn Flavors with Joël Robuchon's Limited Edition Breads

As the leaves change and autumn aromas fill the air, Joël Robuchon's renowned bakery is preparing a delightful treat for all bread lovers. Starting from September 10 until December 2, 2025, “Le Pain de Joël Robuchon,” along with its boutique stores, is offering six exclusive limited edition breads that celebrate the seasonal flavors of mushrooms and chestnuts.

Highlighted Product: Curry Bun with Three Types of Mushrooms

The standout item for this season is the freshly launched Curry Bun with Three Types of Mushrooms, priced at 480 yen. This exquisite treat combines mouthwatering mushrooms—namely maitake, shimeji, and button mushrooms—enveloped in a soft bun. The mushrooms are complemented by a luscious curry sauce that features honey for a mellow sweetness.

Each type of mushroom is carefully wrapped separately within the dough, enhancing their individual flavors while providing a delightful spicy kick from the 13 spices used in the curry sauce. The bun is lightly sweet and has a fluffy texture, finished off with homemade breadcrumbs and a drizzle of Spanish olive oil for a perfectly crisp bake.

Other Autumn Delights

In addition to the curry bun, consumers can look forward to a selection of other seasonal favorites:

• - Quiche Champignon (670 yen): A rich quiche filled with the earthy flavors of mushrooms, complemented by the creaminess of gorgonzola and the crunch of walnuts—perfectly pairing with a glass of wine.
• - Mushroom Puff Pastry (580 yen): This is a flaky pastry crafted with four types of mushrooms, layered with onions, garlic oil, and cheese, offering an irresistible bite.
• - Châtaigne (220 yen): A visually stunning bread made with chestnut flour that encases a single rum-soaked chestnut, creating a flavorful experience that captures the essence of autumn.
• - Brioche au Marron Glacé (240 yen): A soft and moist brioche paired with exquisite marron glacé, ideal for breakfast or snack time alongside a cup of coffee or tea.
• - Chestnut Cream Bun (560 yen): A rich, sweet chestnut cream enveloped in a chocolatey brioche, garnished with a chestnut for a delightful balance of sweetness and bitterness.
