◇Nounours Citron Miel - ￥411 (tax included)

It is slightly savory on the outside and moist on the inside, leaving a pleasant lingering scent of fluffy citrus.
◇Cake Citron - ￥378 (tax included)
A light and moist cake that adds an accent of yuzu to the refreshing acidity of lemon. It features a deep flavor layering the gentle scent of yuzu over the crisp acidity of lemon.
◇Tartelette Citron - ￥400 (tax included)
An item layering smooth lemon cream and fruity confit on a dough with a savory hazelnut flavor. The contrast between richness and acidity is exquisite, expanding the layers of taste with every bite.
◆Coffret Citron - ￥1,296 (tax included)
A seasonal petite assortment packed with bear-motif financiers, tartelettes, and cakes.
The refreshing acidity brought by seasonal citron harmonizes beautifully with the buttery richness unique to baked sweets.
You can enjoy different textures and scents one by one, encountering various expressions of lemon every time you eat.
The box with a citron charm is also highly recommended as a gift.
