This Yoyogi-Uehara shop makes just one thing – French crullers – and absolutely nails it. Composed of 20 ingredients sourced from across Japan, these doughnuts are light and fluffy on the inside with a thin, crispy shell that makes them seriously hard to resist.
Popular flavours include the signature Freckle Donut – the original cruller with a rich egg-and-wheat flavour and topped with a thin layer of icing. The Snowy Sugar is the same base doughnut but dusted in powdered sugar for a sweet touch, while the Salt Freckle pairs top-quality salt for a sweet-salty finish. Green tea fans will love the Sencha Cruller, made with premium sencha from renowned tea producers Sugimotoen in Shizuoka prefecture.
