On a Monday morning, just before noon, I visited the restaurant. Even though their business card stated that they were closed on Mondays and Thursdays, they were open. They had various muffins and salt scones displayed on the counter. In the bottom showcase, there were pound cakes and chocolate muffins. When I asked for recommendations, I was told that the salt scones were the most popular, and the rest depended on personal preference. I ordered a salt scone for 250 yen and an apple muffin for 380 yen, which were packed in a paper bag. The salt scone had no sweetness at all. Perhaps it is meant to be eaten with cream or jam? It had a slightly crumbly texture, which could be considered authentic, but without cream or jam, it felt lacking in flavor. The apple muffin had a subtle sweetness and a fluffy texture, but personally, I prefer it to be slightly crispy on the outside, so I was a bit disappointed. They seem to use organic ingredients and pay attention to their preparation, but it just wasn't to my liking.

I will deliver items that you can eat with peace of mind, with all my heart. This shop is particular about the ingredients. I purchased muffins and pound cake. The muffin flavors were Red Haruka and Cream Cheese Black Sesame Crumble. The pound cake flavors were Caramel Apple and Fig. They are not too sweet, with gentle flavors that are delicious. I would like to try other items as well, so I will make sure to go early next time.

It was a bit difficult to find as it is quietly tucked away in a residential street. There is a parking lot in front of the store. The sign is very small, so it's easy to pass by the shop at first. Inside, the place is very stylish, with a small showcase displaying muffins and cakes. If you go late, it seems like they might be sold out. As the sign says, they offer muffins with a gentle sweetness made from ingredients that are good for your body. The nuts were just right, and it was delicious. It was fun to watch them punch a hole in the packaging after taking the order. Thank you for the meal!

After lunch, I stopped by "Sayunobake" to get some take-out pastries. I had been meaning to visit ever since they were featured in "Takatoshi Land," but over a year had passed without me realizing it! There was only one other customer when I visited, and the owner was very friendly. They kindly allowed me to take photos of their pastries. The store's concept is to use domestic, organic, and additive-free ingredients, avoiding white sugar and trans fats as much as possible. The staff's dedication to creating healthy pastries is truly admirable. The pastries available on the day of my visit were: - Salted caramel and nut muffin (¥380) - Homemade red bean and cream cheese muffin (¥380) - Gentle salt scone (¥250) - Gentle salt milk muffin (¥370) - Strawberry sauce and cream cheese muffin (¥380) - Decaf coffee cream muffin (¥380) - Gluten-free banana bread (¥390) - Coconut chocolla frosting pound cake (¥380) - Uji matcha pound cake (¥380) - Gluten-free chocolate cake (¥380) I chose the "Decaf coffee cream muffin (¥380)" and the "Coconut chocolla frosting pound cake (¥380)" to enjoy for dinner that day. The muffins had a subtle sweetness to the dough, which was soft and not overly sweet. The honey and brown sugar added a delicate sweetness, allowing the flavors of the mocha cream cheese and coffee cream inside to shine. The pound cake was dense, yet had a light and fluffy texture when eaten. The cocoa bitterness, along with the honey and brown sugar, provided a hint of sweetness. The frosting had a hint of rum flavor but was refreshing, making it enjoyable even for those who don't like alcohol. It's truly a delightful experience to savor such gentle and lightly flavored dishes. Despite being a sweet tooth, I found these flavors satisfying and delicious. The owner's dedication is evident in every dish. I can't wait to try their scones and other items next time! Thank you for the wonderful meal.

On a certain weekday, I stopped by a specialty store for muffins and baked goods in Chitose City, Kitasakae 1, for lunch. There was parking space for one car next to the store. The interior of the store was simple, with a counter displaying muffins and a glass case below showcasing pound cakes and other baked goods for sale. From the menu on that day, I chose something that caught my interest from the various types displayed on the shelf, and through my mask, I asked the very beautiful lady for it. I purchased the "Simple Plenty Pumpkin Muffin (380 yen)" simply because it had an unusual color for a muffin, and when I took a bite, I was pleasantly surprised by the moist texture of the cake, which was not very sweet. Personally, I thought it was perfect, but for some, it might be too little sweet. The flavor of the pumpkin was subtly subdued in a good way. I also bought the "Decaf W Mocha Pound Cake (380 yen)" from the pound cake section. I thought, if it's coffee-flavored, I might like it even more. At the top, I expected whipped cream, but it was a different kind of cream that had a slight tanginess, almost like cheese. It was interesting, and the pound cake itself looked like chocolate but was actually coffee-flavored, which I appreciated because it wasn't too rich. There were walnuts and almonds inside, adding an interesting touch to the cake. Lastly, I purchased the "Banana Cake and Florentine (370 yen)" because I was torn between that and scones. I thought a banana flavor would be delicious, and when I took a bite, I found it to be moist. There were almond slices on top, and instead of a sweet caramel-like coating, there was a slightly soft coating with a caramel flavor. The moistness of the cake was excellent, and the sweetness complemented well as a tea snack. The presence of banana was not overpowering, making it a well-balanced treat. I suddenly thought, when it comes to muffins, I personally prefer a shop in Higashi Sapporo, but in Chitose City, this might be the number one spot. Thank you for the meal.

It was a gift. I saw the paper bag and already liked it! I heard that they attached a small dried flower to the paper bag when I said it was a gift for a friend. I was first impressed by their good taste and cuteness. I went home and tried it. As far as I can remember, it's the most delicious one. It has a gentle taste. I like muffins, but most muffins are so sweet that I end up wanting to drink a lot of coffee. I prefer a gentle sweetness, so this was just right for me. I can enjoy the ingredients like pumpkin and sweet potato without being overwhelmed. When I looked up the shop, I found out that they are particular about their ingredient selection and have no additives. If I ever go nearby, I definitely want to visit. It was a delightful gift.

I saw a sign on my way to buy coffee and decided to stop by "Bake" thinking it was a bakery, but it turned out to be a pastry shop. I tried the "Gentle Salt Scone" which was heavy and had a crispy surface with a moist inside, a perfect mix of sweetness and saltiness. The "Gentle Salt Silk Muffin" was also heavy with a coconut flavor and a salty-sweet milk cream. Despite not being a fan of coconut, I found the muffin moist and a good match with the cream. Lastly, the "Strawberry Sauce and Cream Cheese Muffin" was delicious with a balance of jam sweetness and cream cheese saltiness. Overall, I enjoyed the healthy organic treats from "Koyuri" bakery.

○Takeout ○Parking available... This shop is known for using high-quality ingredients to create pastries that can be enjoyed by people with allergies. The owner is a calming and friendly lady. The pastries look delicious and make you want to buy them all. I purchased the Chocolate Soy Cream Banana Muffin, the Strawberry Sauce and Cream Cheese Muffin, and the NicoNico Cookies. The muffins are satisfying and not too sweet, making them easy to eat multiple pieces. They look and taste amazing. The cookies have a simple taste, but each one has a different smiling face that is very soothing. The prices are a bit on the high side, but I would definitely treat myself to these pastries again.

The shop owner, who was troubled by atopic dermatitis, creates healthy sweets that are organic and free of additives. They do not use white sugar, margarine, or shortening. When I visited in the early afternoon on a holiday, there were only a few products left. It seems to be gaining popularity, as it has been featured in the media. The Strawberry Sauce and Cream Cheese Muffin (380 yen) had a melting texture and a gentle flavor. The Cinnamon-scented Carrot Cake (450 yen) was devoured by my wife, so I'm not sure about the taste. I personally found it lacking, maybe because I am used to richer flavors. But as a sweet treat for children, it might be ideal, even if you don't have allergies.

It's a place in Chitose City, located on Hokuei 1-chome between Chuo Odori and Route 36, but for the exact location, as always, please check the map on Tabelog. I heard that this smokehouse shop used to operate within another shop but has now moved out and opened its own standalone store, so I decided to visit. Upon arrival, I checked out the muffins and cakes on display, with prices similar to those of a fancy cake shop. I bought the "Strawberry & Cream Cheese Muffin" and the "Homemade White Bean and Strawberry Muffin" and headed home. I first tried the "Strawberry & Cream Cheese Muffin" - the muffin itself was moist and had a gentle taste, while the cream cheese had a slight tanginess and the strawberry jam was subtly sweet. Next, I tried the "Homemade White Bean and Strawberry Muffin" which had homemade white bean on top with strawberries. The white bean was mildly sweet, more of a traditional Japanese flavor than a Western one. The muffin itself was the same as the "Strawberry & Cream Cheese Muffin". Overall, the muffins were made with high-quality, gentle ingredients, but lacked a strong, memorable flavor. Those looking for a more elaborate and flavorful cake might find these muffins a bit underwhelming.

Heading towards Chitose area. A shop selling organic sweets. [Sakura Pound Cake] [Strawberry & Cream Cheese Muffin] [Salt Scone] Total 1000 yen. The pound cake might not be my favorite as I prefer a stronger butter flavor.

Second stop of the day at the bakery "Sayuno Bake". I chose a muffin, while my companion went for a tart. They use natural sugars like cane sugar, resulting in a gentle sweetness. It may be a bit lacking for those with a sweet tooth, but for me, it was just right, not too sweet.

It is a confectionery shop in Chitose. They used to operate in a corner of a shop called Bo Munchies & Smoke Bar, but I found out through Tabelog that they have relocated. This was my first visit to their new location, which is now in the former spot of another bento shop called Little Kitchen. The menu includes tofu chocolate cake for 380 yen and a gentle salt milk muffin for 380 yen. The shop is located on the first floor of a white apartment building, with one parking space available next to the store. It's not very noticeable, so you might miss it if you don't specifically look for it. They offer cakes, muffins, and scones. I asked if I could take photos, and they kindly agreed. There is seating available for eating in, and there was a gentleman waiting for his coffee who seemed like a regular customer. The most popular item is the tofu chocolate cake, which is a moist and dense gateau chocolat made without chocolate, eggs, or milk. It is not very sweet, making it suitable even for those who don't like sweet things. The gentle salt milk muffin is made with coconut milk and fleur de sel salt, creating a subtly addictive flavor. The shop owner developed atopic dermatitis, which led them to use domestically produced, organic, and additive-free ingredients, avoiding white sugar and trans fats to create natural and healthy sweets.

A shop that is Instagram-worthy! Muffins that are good for the body.

I was curious about the baked goods at Saji Cafe's market in Chitose, and I'm happy that I can now buy them nearby.
