LeTAO Double Fromage

"LeTAO", a pastry shop in Otaru, Hokkaido. Our representative product, the cheesecake "Double Fromage," has the ability to win the gold medal in the sweets category of the "2014 Best Order Award."

The actual store is LeTAO, which is only available in Hokkaido. I'm curious, but if you think that ordering is a bit difficult, it seems that you often exhibit at department stores nationwide (see the official website).

I was exhibiting in the neighborhood at an event, so I bought the popular Double Fromage!

LeTAO's Double Fromage

Originally it was only sold over the counter, but with the spread of popularity, the demand from outside Hokkaido is increasing. After spending three years researching technology that does not lose its taste even after freezing and thawing, it has become possible to ship in a frozen state.

The one I got this time is also frozen at the time of purchase. "Please thaw in the refrigerator for 5 to 8 hours before eating." Be careful as you can't eat it right after you buy it!

The package is a round box with wood grain. An orange obi with the product name printed on it is applied. The diameter is about 15 cm.

When you open the lid, a film wrap like Camembert cheese appears. There is also a leaflet with a thrilling copy.

As you open the package further, a double fromage with soft skin appears. The surface is covered with a fine sponge.

The inside has a two-layer structure. The top is a rare cheese mousse and the bottom is a baked cheesecake.

Rare cheese mousse is more like a cream than a mousse. It melts and spreads quickly, spreading the richness of rich milk. The taste is refreshing with a slight cheese flavor.

On the other hand, the baked cheesecake has a moist and tight texture like terrine. When you eat it, it melts smoothly and spreads the rich taste and sweetness of cheese.

Both rare and baked are excellent

Each one is delicious, but when the two come together, it's exceptional! The rich cheese and milk flavors combine to create a delicious, wrinkled mouthfeel. The fluffy texture of the sponge that wraps the whole is also a good accent.

The sweetness is good, the ratio of mousse in the whole is high, and the texture is light, so I just keep eating without stopping. The deliciousness that makes sense of popularity.
