Whether they can be individually packaged is the key point ♡ Eight places where you can find "canelé" for under 500 yen, perfect for small gifts.

Canelé as a Petite Gift ♡

Canelé has been around for a long time, but it feels like it has exploded in popularity over the last few years, doesn't it?

The texture is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Each shop has its own unique version, making it fun to compare and find your favorite.

Recently, it has also become increasingly popular as a petite gift for weddings, adding a touch of elegance.

It's delicious, a joy to receive, and also looks cute ♡

Stores with Individually Wrapped Canelés 🛒

For petite gifts, it's important that they come individually wrapped.

(Buying a box of assorted canelés and wrapping them myself is too much of a hurdle...! I would prefer them to be individually wrapped from the start for easy gifting.)

However, it seems there are few stores that sell canelés individually wrapped.

Therefore, in this article, I have compiled a list of stores that make it easy to gift canelés ♡

➡ I recommend pairing with marry’s design drip bag coffee priced at 140 yen per pack

I have gathered only stores where you can get individual wrapping for under 500 yen for petite gifts＊

Butter Labo @ Online

Lastly, I introduce "Butter Labo," an online-only baked goods shop.

The seals are also cute.

Delicious Canelés as Petite Gifts ♡

I introduced canelé shops where you can get them individually wrapped ♡

Your friends will be delighted to receive "Oh, a canelé~ ♡," and for older relatives, it might be the first time they try it!

Since they're baked goods, the shelf life is 2 to 5 days. (Please confirm with the store!)

Since petite gifts can involve larger quantities, it would be best to order in advance from the store for pick-up the day before the wedding or purchase from an online shop and have them delivered directly to the venue the day before.

Please consider adding these to your list of petite gift candidates ♡
