01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Reheat a canelé at home and you can enjoy the contrast of a crisp exterior and a chewy centre. Some customers have praised that texture, while others say plain is the one to try first. CANNELE LITE Gransta Tokyo’s menu includes “Zestful Plain”, Yame matcha, British tea Earl Grey and Adult Cacao. Start with plain for a classic flavour, or choose matcha or Earl Grey for a different aroma. One customer also took the Earl Grey canelé home to enjoy.
For a Japanese-inspired flavour, consider Yame matcha or black sesame and kinako chocolate. One customer noted the chocolate inside the matcha canelé, while the black sesame and kinako chocolate was praised for pairing kinako chocolate with salt. For something more distinctive, there is cassis rose chocolate, the liqueur-based Sangria Chocolat and Shinshu Whisky Bonbon. A customer who chose Sangria Chocolat also enjoyed adding the liqueur with the pipette provided.
For a Tokyo Station-style gift, the Suica Penguin canelé is another option. Some customers chose it for its cute appearance, while others gave a set combining it with popular flavours. The shop is inside JR Tokyo Station, in the Gin no Suzu area of Gransta Tokyo, and offers takeaway. With the option of warming the canelés at home, it suits both a snack between journeys and a gift to enjoy later.
