About this place
Flower cakes with charming, petal-like decorations catch the eye, alongside simple, generous baked treats at SugarChefEmiko. This sweets shop has a small seating area in Hakusan, Bunkyo City, where you can enjoy something sweet at an unhurried pace, surrounded by the aroma of tea.
The menu includes British classics such as scones with clotted cream and jam, Victoria sandwich cake, carrot cake and red velvet cake, with its striking deep-red sponge. There are also tempting choices for the day’s mood, from seasonal apple pie to chocolate pudding, served in the shop with ice cream and raspberry sauce.
Tea to accompany the sweets includes Darjeeling, with its fragrant aroma and crisp finish, and Sri Lankan Uda Pussellawa, whose floral fragrance is matched by a pleasing depth. You can also choose coffee sourced from nearby karta coffee in Koishikawa, selected to pair with the sweets, or French apple juice. Take your time over a cake and a combination that suits your taste.
Drop in during a stroll around Hakusan for handmade sweets and carefully brewed tea.
