■ One bottle is delicious three times!

Specially, I was allowed to sample the "genuine freshly baked" that had just been taken out of the oven. The inside is mellow, while the outside is moderately burnt! When you put it in your mouth while being wrapped in the scent of cacao that rises sharply, it melts and disappears. The sweetness is modest, which is unique to hot and freshly baked. After a while, the whole thing will become familiar, and that moist texture will be created.


This gateau chocolate is moist and rich when eaten at room temperature. When cooled, it becomes soggy like the popular "terrine chocolate"! When warmed, it transforms into a sweet that melts like fondant chocolate. It seems that this "one bottle is three times more delicious" way of eating was born from the idea of the customer. When I heard that it was delicious to eat chilled, he was shocked, "Why do you chill freshly baked food!", But when I tried it, I was surprised that it was surprising. Or something.


■ Handmade in the restaurant kitchen

Even now that I specialize in gateau chocolate, I still make it every day in the kitchen of the old restaurant. There is no large oven for confectionery, so only 11 can be baked at a time.

The equipment for boiling pasta noodles, which was once a popular menu, is covered with a bowl of ingredients. Mix the ingredients with a whisk, pour them into a mold, and when they are baked, pop them into a box with the parchment paper. In this way, "freshly baked" is in the hands of customers.


There is no mail order, and it can only be purchased at stores and some department stores. Still, in search of this taste, customers from all over Japan come to visit, and sometimes there are people from abroad. On the day of the interview before Valentine's Day, the table, which was once the audience seat, was lined with a mountain of gateau chocolates for reservations. For gifts? Or is it for yourself? It was impressive that Mr. Ujiie's eyes staring at the customer seemed happy while making an unnecessary guess.

■ White Day's big favorite

Speaking of chocolate, Valentine's Day. But in fact, it seems that it will sell a lot on White Day, which has a smaller market. Many men buy in bulk. It may be said that it is a big favorite of White Day.

At the time of writing the article, it is said that reservations are accepted after February 22nd. If you are having trouble with gifts, please try this "Japan's No. 1 Gateau Chocolate" as an option. I'm sure everyone will be impressed with how delicious it is!
