I made a special trip to try the famous sweets at Kitakaro. As soon as I walked in, I saw an incredible selection of cakes, cream puffs, baumkuchen, and cookies. Everything looked so beautifully made that I wanted to take it all home.
Kitakaro’s sweets have a delicate texture and rich, milky flavor without being overly sweet. You can really taste the freshness of Hokkaido dairy products.
