Whose chocolates are they?!
I thought, “I hope they’re from a shop in Nishinomiya! 🤔” and looked into it.
Then I found the shop owner commenting on Twitter 😊
The answer is ↓↓↓

指原さん！ありがとうございます！！
— 西 剛紀 洋菓子店リビエール (@nishitake0525) February 13, 2021
It was “洋菓子店リビエール” in nearby Mukonoso, Amagasaki!!
Speaking of Rivière, it used to have a shop in Nishinomiya until 2019, and the shop that opened in its place is “ミネット”, newly opened by the former manager!!
See, Nishinomiya got a little bit of the spotlight too〜✌😂✌
Minette didn’t have the same chocolates, but it’s an incredibly cute cake shop with cat cakes, cat cookies, and all kinds of treats cat lovers will adore 🐱
Finally
Sashihara has probably seen chocolates from all kinds of high-end shops, so what kind of chocolate would make her tweet that she wants to live here? ✨
I want to see the real thing〜😍!!
I think I’ll go buy some next time〜🚙（The chocolates in the photo might be limited to the Valentine’s season, though…）
