Exterior view of Yokaichi Forest

Found in Yokaichi, Shiga! A confectionery store surrounded by the Chinju Forest [Yokaichi no Mori]

[Yokaichi no Mori] is nestled in the forest of the town shrine of [Wakamatsu Tenjinja Shrine]. This is the Yokaichi Borikan of Taneya and Club Harie, which used to be located in front of Yokaichi Station, and moved to this location in 2017.

Since then, while protecting the forest, the store has sold Japanese and Western-style confections and also has a café.

Another feature of this store is that customers can watch through glass windows as the bakers bake, cut, and finish their baumkuchen in the workshop.

The Chocolat Balm mini, a chocolate-filled baumkuchen with a ganache filling in the center, and the Taneya Raisin Sandwich, a crispy sable filled with white miso paste mixed with rum-soaked raisins, are limited items available only at the store.

Chocolat Balm mini, 648 yen for 1 piece, tastes even better when slightly heated in the microwave as the ganache melts!

Yokaichi no Mori no Taneya Raisin Sandwich

Taneya raisin sandwiches (216 yen per sandwich, 1404 yen for 6 sandwiches) are packaged separately with sable and white miso bean paste, so you can enjoy a freshly made sandwich right before eating.
