Trending on SNS: "Chérie Maison de Biscuit" ♡

A confectionery shop in Kyoto, "Chérie Maison de Biscuit."

This shop was opened by the famous patissier Kanae Kobayashi, who has appeared on NHK's "Today's Cooking," in March 2019.

Despite being open for a short time, it has garnered a great reputation and attracts many visitors from afar, making it an incredibly popular spot ♡

In this article, we will introduce "Chérie Maison de Biscuit" and its signature product, the Glacé Sandwich, which can also be ordered online ♩

The shop is run by patissier Kanae Kobayashi ♡

What kind of patissier is Kanae Kobayashi, the owner of "Chérie Maison de Biscuit"?

At the age of 23, Kobayashi went to France alone and graduated from the cooking and pastry school "École Ritz Escoffier" in Paris. After that, she trained at five-star hotels and Michelin three-star restaurants, including "Hôtel Ritz."

After returning to Japan, she operated a pastry class called "La Petit Chérie" while also being active in events at hotels and department stores, as well as producing sweets for major companies.

The patisserie "Patisserie Kanae," which she opened in its tenth year, sparked a macaron boom in Japan ♡

It's no wonder that "Chérie Maison de Biscuit," founded by such an extraordinary individual, has become popular…!

The signature menu includes Dessert Parfait and Biscuit Sandwich ♡

The flagship products of "Chérie Maison de Biscuit" are the dessert parfait and biscuit sandwich.

The parfait, made using seasonal fruits right before your eyes, is exquisite ♡

With only 7 counter seats, it operates by reservation only. (When it opened, there were reportedly more than 70 people on the cancellation waiting list…)

For parfait lovers, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime gem.

The other signature product, the biscuit sandwich, is available for mail order.

This provides an opportunity for those who don’t often get the chance to visit Kyoto ♡

It features carefully made biscuit dough, baked by hand one by one, stuffed with cream, rum raisins, and chestnut glacé ♡

The crunchy, fragrant biscuit pairs beautifully with a cream made from domestically produced fermented butter and Belgian white chocolate.

Homemade rum raisins with a touch of rum and Italian high-grade chestnut glacé that has less sugar coating than regular ones.

Many are moved by this luxurious harmony and become fans ♡

Additionally, "Chérie Maison de Biscuit" is characterized by the use of fermented butter, wheat flour, sugar, salt, and aluminum-free baking powder.

With no use of eggs or almonds, it's safe for those with nut allergies, including children.

All raisins are organic, non-oil, California-grown. You can feel their commitment to ingredients.

A waiting time of several months and only orders every six months!?

The Glacé Sandwich from "Chérie Maison de Biscuit."

It can be purchased online for mail order, but…

Surprisingly, it was so popular that the 2020 stock sold out. Reservations for the 2021 stock are said to start in December.

Moreover, one person can only order once every six months.

It's so rare that it makes you even more eager to try it…!

The price for a set of six rum raisin sandwiches and three chestnut glacé sandwiches (nine pieces total) is 2,850 yen (tax included).

A set of only chestnut glacé sandwiches costs 3,240 yen (tax included).

The expiration date is seven days when stored in the refrigerator.

Should it be a gift or enjoyed personally…! It's a tough choice.
