Hokkaido Milk Castella (北海道牛乳カステラ)| Castella Specialty Shop/ Cafe | New Chitose AP

New Chitose Airport has a lot of attractive shops and cafes. If you like sweets and dairy, how about "Hokkaido Gyunyu (Milk) Castella (北海道牛乳カステラ)"?

Freshly-baked delicious castella can be eaten at its cafe!! Sounds wonderful, doesn't it?

How yummy is it? Mr. Hironobu Tsujiguchi (辻口 博啓), a popular Japanese pâtissier produces this shop. Now you understand I don't have to explain about how tasty the sponge cake is! Hahaha!

He carefully selects ingredients for the cake. All of them are produced in Hokkaido!

Well, well, well, I'll show you the cake first! Seeing (or eating) is believing!!

This is a cafe corner.

Voila!
This is super-delicious castella!

They serve two sets; a coffee set and a milk set, and I definitely recommend a milk set! Why????

This is pasteurized and non-homogenized milk produced in "One Two Farm (ワンツー牧場)" in Akan (阿寒), Hokkaido. That's why it is very tasty and dense!! 

Please put this dense cake with ...............

non-sugar fresh cream!!! I love it!!

How do you like the castella rusk? This is available only at this shop!

They also serve castella parfait!

During the Halloween season, they also serve a seasonal specialty parfait.

Voila part 2!
This is the pumpkin parfait!

The pumpkin cream is not very sweet! Absolutely this is my favorite!

Look at the body! It has diced castella, soft ice cream, and pumpkin paste!!! Bravo!!

How about the other toppings? It has slices of pumpkin of course, and

the yummy x 2 rusk!!!

Last but not least, their ice cream is super-super delicious!! It tastes like high-grade milk itself!! They don't use a lot of sugar for it so that we can enjoy the tasty milk flavor from the heart! Perfect!!

If you like production-limited sweets, how about "Sakegasu or sake cake (酒粕)"? The very soft castella contains sake cake, smelling distinctive aroma!

When you come to the New Chitose AP, why don't you drop by this cafe, and fully enjoy the Hokkaido taste?
