Product Details

The "Mother's Day Butter Decoration" cake is designed with a deep respect for tradition, utilizing an age-old buttercream recipe that emphasizes quality. The buttercream combines egg yolks whipped with syrup to trap air, creating a delightful balance of lightness and richness, thanks to the addition of domestically sourced unsalted butter. The result is a cake that melts on the palate, leaving a luscious impression of flavor that has won the hearts of many.

Furthermore, the handmade roses that adorn the cake are crafted by skilled patisserie chefs who take the time to pipe each petal with precision. The sponge cake, which features an abundant amount of egg yolk, complements the buttercream perfectly. Many customers have praised its flavor, noting the delightful match between the rich taste and the hint of rum.

A Legacy of Excellence

Colombin was founded by Kuniharu Kadokura, who served at the Imperial Household Ministry, making it Japan's first manufacturer to provide authentic French confections. The company famously invented the shortcake, which is now synonymous with Western-style pastries in Japan, and was quick to introduce open terrace cafes and confectionery demonstration spaces—paving the way for modern pastry culture in the country.

This year, Colombin celebrates its 100th anniversary. Over the past century, the company has preserved its rich history and tradition while adapting to contemporary changes, ensuring that it continues to offer innovative products and services that thrill customers.
