[A special one just for you ✨] It feels like gazing into a jeweler’s display case! This rumoured patisserie makes everyone’s eyes light up. Introducing Patisserie bianco nero (Patisserie Bianco Nero) . The shop name Bianco Nero (literally "white and black" in Japanese) is also the nickname of the Italian football team Juventus. True to its name, the chic interior is styled in black and white. Beautifully shaped cakes line the display case. They aren’t sliced cakes but individually crafted whole cakes. "We want to deliver a single special cake just for you," and "We want people to enjoy an entire cake filled with our feelings," the pastry chef says. The chef trained as a pastry chef under a French chef at a renowned Western confectionery shop in Shizuoka Prefecture. Deciding to live in a place rich in nature, the chef relocated and opened this shop in Miyoshi in May 2018. On this day, we spoke with a regular customer. "They’re like works of art—when you open the box everyone goes ‘wow’. The sweetness is restrained and the flavours are delicate. There’s no other shop like this," they said. The taste and beauty have built a reputation, attracting visitors who bring coolers from outside the prefecture and many customers from Hiroshima City. Customer gender is about evenly split between men and women. The cake selection changes frequently with the seasons and events. Come by to find your own special cake 😊 *Products and prices are as of the time of publication.* Patisserie bianco nero @patisserie_bianco_nero 📍 2-15-14 Tokaichi South, Miyoshi City, Hiroshima Prefecture 📞 0824-53-1315 Hours: 10:00–18:00 *Closed when sold out* Closed: every Wednesday and the 1st and 3rd Thursdays Access: about a 3-minute drive from Miyoshi Interchange (Miyoshi IC) Parking: available Other: We recommend reserving the item you want.
