Shiro-Hige's Cream Puff Factory (白髭のシュークリーム工房)

Hidden in a corner among the residential area, you’ll enjoy the whole vibe of this quaint little cafe even if you’re not a fan of Totoro! We came by just for these cream puffs and had the difficult decision to choose among four, each differentiated by its head accessory (how cute!). The classic Custard Cream Puff had a lovely chilled filling that was smooth and delicate with just a touch of vanilla bean sweetness, while the seasonal Peach Cream Puff had small cubes of peaches - really good! The profiterole-like puffs though, had potential to be way better. They were fairly crisp and flaky but also a little too dry, bordering on being a tad hard.
