01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
The Tokumaru cream puff pairs a light, fluffy pastry shell and smooth custard with a piece of castella in the middle. The sponge adds a change in texture, and some reviewers found the sweetness restrained. It makes a different choice from a cream puff focused on a generous amount of filling. Some customers visit Sanburon specifically for this signature pastry; the patisserie is takeaway-only.
For a cake, options include a classic celebration cake with strawberries and fresh cream layered between sponge, as well as fruit tarts topped with seasonal fruit and piped custard and fresh cream. One customer who ordered a strawberry tart for a birthday said it was topped with plenty of large, sweet strawberries and delighted their child. Others have praised the fluffy sponge and lightly sweetened fresh cream, making these cakes an option for sharing with family on a birthday.
Cinnamon-spiced apple pie has also received positive reviews. It offers something different to take home if you would rather have a flavour apart from strawberry and cream.
