AUDREY is a sweets specialty store located in the famous Nihonbashi Takashimaya department store. It’s an absolute must-see shop, especially as a strawberry fan! Their most popular creation is a treat called Glacier. A plump, sweet-and-sour strawberry sits in the middle of refreshing milk cream, wrapped in a cookie that resembles langue de chat. This beautiful delight is created to look like a bouquet full of flowers, making it a great gift for everyone who knows how to enjoy a strawberry-licious treat.

Another highly from AUDREY is the Ronchanty. The large, chocolaty drop hides a savory strawberry inside, nestled in fluffy fresh cream that’ll melt right on your tongue. The coat of chocolate makes for a satisfying crunch as you bite into this heavenly dessert. The Ronchanty comes in both milk and white chocolate.

Finally, we urge you to try AUDREY’s Ruby. This photogenic creation seems to shine like a real ruby, with flavorful jelly coating a fresh strawberry that boasts a great balance between sweet and sour. A soft cookie acts as the base for this bright red dessert and a drop of rich milk jelly acts as a balance between mellow cookie and flavorful topping. Nothing harmonizes quite like milk and strawberry, right?

Yoku Moku is a prestigious Japanese confectionery that has become famous with its “cigare.” The rolled-up langue de chat is a wonderfully light but flavorful sweet treat for any occasion and recently, Yoku Moku has surprised fans by filling their classic with mellow ice cream.

One of the flavors is, of course, strawberry. To perfectly match the flavor of the cigare, the shop created its very own ice cream by using high-quality strawberries and bringing out their plump flavor to the fullest. With a full-bodied sweetness and subtly sour notes, you’ll find the ice cream cigare surprisingly refreshing, no matter the season or time of day!
