Yesterday was the Grand Opening of this very small pastry shop. I’m a huge fan of small business owners, especially when it concerns eateries, so I wanted to help it along on its inaugural day. Though half the size of most bakeries, Azerole displayed a number of scrumptious looking fruit tarts, roll cakes, cakes, and castellas.
My wife and I both decided to see if they could do the basic things right and took home the chocolate cake (300 yen), however, we weren’t really in the mood for cake and it ended up in our fridge till today.
Well this afternoon we tried it and were delighted! My initial impressions were that of lightness, and not very sweet. But each bite seemed to be richer and richer. The texture of the top decorative flower part was hard with full-flavored chocolate which my wife described by saying 歯ごたえがある!

As an added bonus, we were given a small gift bag which included cookies, coffee, creamer and sugar. Plus, they have a point card!

We’ve already decided to go back and try the fruit tarts and castellas and I encourage you to give this place a try. If you happen to drive they have two parking spaces available.
