Shortcake specialty shop
『French Pound House
Yamatogo Main Store』
A patisserie nestled in the quiet residential area 「Yamatogo」 of Sugamo, enchanting many sweets fans. Especially famous is the shortcake reputed to be “Japan’s most delicious.” There are two varieties: the classic “Blanc” and the grown‑up “Rouge,” with a faint aroma of liqueur; both offer a delicate sponge, elegantly sweet fresh cream, and carefully selected strawberries in exquisite harmony. The shop also has a café space, where you can enjoy the beautiful cakes in the showcase on the spot along with carefully curated tea and coffee. A renowned shop you’ll want to visit for many occasions—from a treat for yourself and gifts for loved ones to whole cakes for anniversaries.
Our signature items are two kinds of shortcake
Blanc: A classic shortcake with sponge soaked in strawberry juice, letting you simply enjoy the fresh, natural flavor of strawberries.
Rouge: A subtly pink cake that combines meringue with fresh cream infused with strawberry juice. The aroma of kirsch (cherry brandy) adds a slightly grown-up touch.
Assorted baked sweets are also popular
In addition to the fresh pastries in the showcase, we also offer a wide selection of baked goods such as pound cakes and cookies, perfect for souvenirs and gifts.
With our carefully selected drinks
In the cafe space, you can also enjoy carefully selected teas and coffees that further enhance the flavor of our cakes. Recommended options include "Darjeeling Second Flush."
A special touch for special days
For celebrations such as birthdays, whole cakes can also be reserved. With our "Japan's best shortcake," why not create a day to remember?
