Do you know "French Soft", a menu that is sold on a whim at Hattendo Cafe LaQua, which opened in Tokyo Dome City LaQua in May of this year? It's a rare dessert that you'll be lucky to meet, as it's only available at the LaQua store, and it's only available in the summer, and it's not offered every day.


French soft is a dessert with rich vanilla soft serve sandwiched between "French burger", which is made by baking Hattendo's signature product "Cream bread" on an iron plate. You can choose your favorite flavor from 4 types of cream pan (custard, matcha, chocolate, Kokura). The price is 400 yen (tax included).


This time, I chose "chocolate" recommended by the clerk.

When you place an order, the cream bun will be baked on a large iron plate inside the store. It takes a few minutes to complete, but this waiting time is also happy. Just watching your French burger bake in front of you through the glass will make your mouth moisturized.



Put a cold soft serve ice cream in the baked French burger and you're done! Please note that the French burger is hot, so if you don't start eating it as soon as you hand it over, the soft serve ice cream will melt.


The surface of the burger is crispy and crispy when chewed. The inside of the dough is a fluffy trottro, which is like the French toast (image) that comes out for breakfast in a luxury hotel. The texture changes so much just by baking ... It's like eating sweets that are completely different from the usual cream bread!


A burger with a fluffy heat and a cool, cold soft serve ice cream mariage ... irresistible. The soft serve ice cream is so sweet that it goes well with the slightly bitter chocolate cream. It is also a blissful moment to stretch the place where the soft serve ice cream and chocolate cream that gradually melts are mixed with Tron.


By the way, I would like to introduce another "Cream Croissant". This is a limited-edition product sold at some Hattendo stores, and it is a sweet that you can enjoy a crispy texture even when cooled. The price is 250 yen (tax included).


The cookie dough is placed on top of the croissant dough and baked. There is plenty of custard cream with a low sweetness inside.


When you chew the dough, the aroma and the taste of butter spread throughout your mouth. The cookie part is refreshing, the croissant is soft and moist, and the cream inside is thick. You can enjoy three textures at once, so one size is not that big, but the satisfaction after eating is quite good!


Hattendo Cafe's signature menus are "fruit burgers" and "French burgers" that can only be eaten here, but the two introduced here are also recommended gems that you should definitely try in the summer! By the way, the store has eat-in seats, so why not stop by if you have a shopping break in LaQua?
