On this day, the gluttonous Kawanishi was invited by his usual sweet Aroma to visit Mr. @suwa_clover.
The person who spoke on the day was Mr. Komatsu, the owner of the store.

It seems that it has been about 10 years since I first started clover in this area. In the beginning, Mother was the cashier, and Mr. Komatsu seemed to be a specialist in making it. Now, it seems that he is doing everything by himself.

When I entered the store, I was most surprised by the variety of cookies!! There are so many kinds of cookies. From the point of view of cookie lover Kasai, it's 🍪🎶 the perfect time When I asked why, I got a Kiss! "The reason is that I like cookies!! The words are so wonderful that time stops, doesn't it? You don't 🤣 🍪 have to tell me that cookies are made by cookie-loving shopkeepers Tarts are also recommended, but cookies are also recommended!! There are also message cookies, and it seems that there are many people who are shy and not good at conveying their feelings to others, and many people pre-order large quantities instead of message cards when they retire!

And most of all, "Original Cake"! As you can see from Clover's Home page, Original the beauty of the cake!! It's so beautiful that it's a shame to eat it!! Reservations are required, but if you have a caricature or photo, we can make it to order! How about the only Original cake in the world!?

Finally, just here, drip coffee is a completely Original coffee exclusively for clover cakes, which is made by a friend of the owner, Mr. Komatsu, who selects the coffee that matches Clover's cake! If you want coffee that is not served anywhere else, it is ☕ a must!!
