6. [Japanese Cuisine Fujii Pudding] is a light Japanese pudding / Shijo Kawaramachi

The pudding at Japanese Restaurant Fujii, located near Tetsugaku no Michi, has been loved by regulars. Opened a specialty store in a prime location facing Shijo Street. The soy milk matcha pudding that does not use eggs is mixed with black sugar syrup and soybean flour, and the smooth pudding that makes the most of the charm of eggs is served in a classic style with caramel.

9. [Taneka Shoten] "Tanemi" that looks adorable / Karasuma Oike

Monaka, which has been wholesale to famous Japanese confectionery stores for more than 70 years, came up with the idea of “something new” through repeated trial and error, and it looks adorable. The three kinds of monaka called tanemi are made by kneading high-quality walnuts, almonds, and cashew nuts into a glutinous rice flour dough, and then adding tsubuan (sweet red bean paste), homemade peanut butter, and almonds. Something to put butter on.

A pure and gentle almond scent that spreads in your mouth. An anninwa pudding shop where you will be excited by the new discovery, ``This is the real almond.'' The flavor of apricot kernel powder, which is made by pulverizing the center of apricot seeds, is transferred to milk, and the addition of precious bracken powder gives it a chewy texture. There are six types of standard puddings made with organic lemons from Italy and matcha from Marukyu Koyamaen, as well as the NOM almond drink, and sweets made with almonds such as almond canelé and almond friand.
