[Les Freres Muto] stands in a quiet residential area near Kino Station on the Eizan Electric Railway Kurama Line. The owner, Koji Muto, is a talented confectioner who has won awards such as the National Confectionery Contest. After training at a German confectionery shop and a hotel in Kyoto, he opened his shop in 2000. We moved to our current location in 2008. Aiming to be ``a sweet that makes you want to eat it when you suddenly think of it,'' the company creates products that respect the opinions of all staff members, from craftsmen to sales staff. Western confectionery and bread created with an awareness of the times are popular with a wide range of generations, from children to the elderly.
Among the extensive lineup, cakes and breads using cheese are all popular products with many fans. They use domestic and foreign cheeses with different flavor characteristics, and have won the hearts of fans with products that fully utilize the individuality of each cheese. The cheesecake's Kino cheese and snow cheese are made with meringue that has an exquisite texture that melts in your mouth. The New York cheesecake is surprisingly smooth and has a rich cheese flavor that is irresistible to cheese lovers. There are also many other products that make use of Kyoto ingredients, such as Chou Rusk made with high-quality matcha and hojicha from a long-established wholesaler in Uji. You want to take it as a souvenir, enjoy it as a snack at home, or use it casually in your daily life.
