Aoyama Bakery

Pick up a tray and step before the bread display, where neatly finished bakes range from French bakery classics to local twists celebrating regional harvests. Operating on basement level 1 of LaLa terrace Kawaguchi, Aoyama Bakery provides everything from staple loaves for the breakfast table to sweet afternoon snacks.

Among the most eye-catching options are items highlighting regional ingredients. The blueberry danish features crisp, fragrant pastry piped with rich custard cream and crowned with fresh blueberries grown in Saitama Prefecture. On the savory side, the baked curry bun with Saitama spinach skips the deep fryer entirely, offering a lighter option for a casual meal.

For something heartier, the curry sausage roll combines a snappy, juicy sausage with spiced curry, while the four-cheese focaccia relies on cheeses like mascarpone and gorgonzola. Simple, enduring staples are also worth keeping in mind, from the round salted butter roll with its comforting aroma to the milk France filled with gently sweet condensed milk cream.

Breads are available for takeout and fit seamlessly into a quick break on busy days, with drink sets on offer as well. Support for transit IC cards and various mobile code payment methods makes dropping in convenient, whether between errands or during a daily commute.
