A cross-cultural mix of sweets from Kyoto and Veneto, Italy
At Kyoto Veneto, we offer a modern take on traditional Italian and Japanese confectionery techniques.
They use delicious Uji matcha tea available at the time of year, and are particular about creating sweets that take advantage of the sourness of the cheese and the flavor of the matcha.

■ Ecute Ueno [First appearance] Daifukucha
Matcha and cheese melt together inside the mochi.
The mochi rice cake, made with salt from Kotobikihama in Kyoto, is wrapped around Uji matcha bean paste and cream containing mascarpone and cheddar cheese. The chewy texture, the bittersweetness of the matcha, and the exquisite balance of the creamy cheese make this a perfect fusion of Japanese and Western styles.
It's also a perfect accompaniment for cherry blossom viewing.
