Welcome to Patisserie Cuore
Hello there!
This is Maru, a writer for Sarukuma ๐๐
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner๐
If you’re wondering where to grab some chocolates, this shop is a fantastic pick๐โจ
Today I’m taking you to Shinmachi, Chuo-ku, Kumamoto City, to a charming patisserie called
“Patisserie Cuore”.

The shop is a short walk from Senba tram stop, tucked just one street off the Shinmachi 2-chome intersection.
Parking is available right in front of the shop ๐=๊ฑโง

As soon as you step inside, you’ll spot the Valentine’s corner ๐
From classic chocolat to adorable seasonal treats, there’s something for everyone!

Highly recommended: the Stick Chocolat at 400 yen ๐
It’s beloved for its cute presentation, and you can even pick your favorite design (=^^=)

Heart-shaped ๐ and so cute โ the Pre Choco is a steal at just 250 yen!
Perfect for kids to share with their friends ๐ฆ๐งโจ (Parents always struggle to choose, don’t they? ๐ )

There’s also a wide range of baked sweets to discover!


Of course, the cake selection is just as tempting โจ
And in season, you’ll find lots of strawberry-topped delights ๐

Here’s the seasonal star of the show!
Strawberry Daifuku โ 320 yen ๐
Wait โ daifuku at a cake shop?! ๐ฒ
Yes, but with a twist: this one is filled with sponge cake, fresh whipped cream, and custard.
You just know this is going to be amazing ๐
And the playfully named “Oppai Pudding” at 220 yen looks irresistible too ๐
(I imagine it has that perfect jiggly texture โ yum!)

You can also order custom character print cakes in advance โ perfect for special occasions โผo’แบ’oโผโก
Tasting the Top Picks at Patisserie Cuore
This time I picked up the two recommended treats!

Stick Chocolat โ 400 yen โจ
One bite โ pure bliss!
Because it’s stick-shaped, it’s the perfect size for kids to enjoy too ๐
Inside is a moist pound cake.
Paired with the nuts and cookies on top, every bite is double the fun and flavor โจ

Pre Choco โ 250 yen!
Heart-piercing cuteness ๐๐๐๐
Guaranteed to win someone’s heart this Valentine’s!

This one is packed with nuts, puffed rice, and dried fruit ๐
The chocolate is mild and smooth, with a delightful mix of textures!
Don’t miss the strawberry daifuku, cakes, and pudding either โ they’re all must-tries ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ
