Have you heard of the "Kyoto Financier"?
This financier is created by the patisserie Gion Sakai located in Gion, Kyoto.
This carefully crafted financier is made using only almond powder, browned butter, and egg whites, without any wheat flour.
Until now, it was not openly sold and was made only for special orders, but they have recently opened a shop where anyone can purchase it anytime.
There are 5 flavors of "Kyoto Financier"*
The Kyoto Financier comes in a total of 5 flavors:
☑ Plain
☑ Matcha
☑ Hazelnut
☑ Orange
☑ Cassis Gooseberry
The plain version is sprinkled with gold leaf, while the matcha version incorporates Uji matcha into the batter, making each financier uniquely "Kyoto Financier" ♩
The packaging of "Kyoto Financier" is cute too!
The square financier, coated with chocolate at an angle, is adorable, but...
The box for the "Kyoto Financier" is also very stylish ♡
The design is inspired by the "Karasuma" motif from the Gion Sakai brand, arranged in an "Oshima wave" pattern.
The colors are pink and white, inspired by the "Fukutama," a good luck charm known for Geiko during New Year's in Gion.
Receiving a treat in such a stylish package would surely make anyone happy.
It seems perfect as a souvenir when visiting your boyfriend's family or as a wedding gift ♡
It Feels Special Because You Can Only Buy It in Kyoto ♡
