< HAKUZA NIHONBASHI > Matcha cake with Dainagon, golden baked confectionery, 1,998 yen (tax included)
Sales period: Available all year round
This spring, HAKUZA NIHONBASHI a gold leaf specialty store, was recently renovated to create a space where you can enjoy the charm and beauty of gold leaf even more. When you think of items that use gold leaf, many people think of tableware, accessories, cosmetics, etc., but in fact, a variety of visually stunning gourmet foods that use gold leaf are also popular.
The matcha sweets made by ＜HAKUZA NIHONBASHI＞ have a premium appearance that will make you exclaim, "Wow!" the moment you open the box. The top is covered with gold leaf, making it look like a gold bar! It gives off a dazzling glow.
The taste is also excellent. You can really taste the Uji matcha, and the matcha liqueur wafts through your nose. The texture of the red bean paste kneaded into the batter adds an accent. The taste is just as luxurious as it looks.
The expiration date is two months from the date of production, so it's perfect as a gift! It's a cake with a big impact that is sure to liven up any conversation.

Coredo Muromachi Terrace 1F
＜ISHIYA NIHONBASHI＞ Parfait (Uji matcha and Hokkaido strawberry) 1,600 yen (tax included)
Sale period: Until June 5th (Mon)
ISHIYA NIHONBASHI, run by ISHIYA, the company famous for "Shiroi Koibito," and IPPUKU&MATCHA, a specialty store for Uji matcha. The two popular cafes, located across the street from each other, have developed a collaboration menu to liven up Nihonbashi! This is the second collaboration following 2021, and this time, three items using Hokkaido strawberries and Uji matcha will be available.
This photo shows a rich parfait layered with Uji matcha ice cream, Hokkaido strawberry confiture, warabimochi, granola, Uji matcha pudding, Hokkaido azuki beans, chantilly (fresh cream), and jelly. The abundant toppings make it look great, but the texture is also noteworthy.
The smoothness of the Uji matcha ice cream, the chewy texture of the matcha warabi mochi, and the smooth texture of the matcha pudding... you can enjoy the different tastes and textures of matcha. It's no exaggeration to say that this parfait lets you enjoy matcha "three times"!
In the early summer weather, where even a single shirt is comfortable, the cool and refreshing parfait will surely taste even better. This is only available during the "COREDO GREEN FES" period, so be careful not to miss out!

A snack for adults born from the combination of sweet potato chips and matcha
COREDO Muromachi 2 1F
< Nihonbashi Imoya Kinjiro> Chocolate-covered Kenpi Organic Matcha 600 yen (tax included)
Sales period: Scheduled to end around the end of May *Ends while supplies last
Nihonbashi Imoya Kinjiro offers a wide variety of flavored imokenpi, including "Freshly Fried Olive Oil Imokenpi," which is fried in the store's workshop using a generous amount of olive oil. The store has been selling imokenpi since it first opened, and for a limited time only, they are offering "Chocolate-Covered Imokenpi." As it uses chocolate that melts in your mouth, they are so particular that they stop selling it during the summer.
The matcha chocolate is made with a base of white chocolate and plenty of organic matcha from Nishiseicha in Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, and is then coated on sweet potato chips instead of molasses. It's surprising how you can enjoy the crispy texture of sweet potato chips even though they are wrapped in smooth chocolate.
The two strong flavors of potato chips and matcha chocolate complement each other perfectly, creating an exquisite taste. It's a great snack, and also goes well with alcohol.
