It looks like a croissant specialty shop called “CARI DE CRO(カリクロ)” is opening inside Hankyu Nishinomiya-kitaguchi Station.
We had published an article saying it would open inside Nishinomiya Hankyu, but that was completely wrong. We apologize🙏

It’s set to open in mid-September🥐
What is “Caricro,” the crispy croissant specialty shop?

It’s a croissant specialty shop with a store in Osaka City. Their signature items seem to be croissants filled with sweet cream, savory fillings, and more, and they also appear to sell them for limited periods at events around Japan. They had a pop-up at Nishinomiya Gardens last October too😄 From what we found, this new Hankyu Nishinomiya-kitaguchi store will be their second location!👏

They seem to have all kinds, from the “Standard” with no cream or filling, to custard, condensed milk whipped cream, fresh chocolate cream, red bean paste & butter, and seasonal flavors😃

Apparently, the sugar sprinkled on the surface is torched with a burner, so you can enjoy a crème brûlée-like feel😍Looks so good

Not a cookie ice cream sandwich, but even a croissant ice cream sandwich😆 It’s a little unusual, and we’re curious about it.

If you buy four or more, it looks like they’ll put them in this cute box for free. Seems like it would make a great souvenir too😄
Final Thoughts
Since we know Takayamadou will be closing on August 30, it will probably be going into that spot. Probably. When we wrote about the Gardens pop-up last time, I remember thinking I wanted to try it, so I’m happy they’re opening a shop♪ It’s set to open in mid-September.
※Sasako-san, thank you for the information!!
