We visited T2's confectionery workshop Harbor store, which is known for its original products such as apple chocolate and Bits chocolate, which are standard souvenirs from TsuCity. <PR T2 confectionery workshop>

The store is located on the south side of the Iwata River estuary in TsuCity, in front of the Tsu Yacht Harbor. About 10 minutes by car from Tsu Station. It's just opposite TsuAirportLine and Nagisamachi.

There are many delicious-looking items lined up in the spacious store!

First of all, when you think of T2's confectionery workshop, you can't miss the popular "Apple Chocolate." This is a masterpiece that has even been featured in Asako Kanokishi's ``National 5-Star Exquisite Order Book''.

Since the store's founding, this apple chocolate has been ranked first and second in popularity, and has been featured on TV and in the mass media. It is also popular as a souvenir. When developing the product, he asked himself, ``What is the right amount of sourness to go with chocolate?'' After considering various recipes, he came up with apple.

Carefully grown apples are soaked in honey and coated with mellow milk chocolate. The soft texture of the apple and the sweetness of the chocolate go very well together. However, it's not too sweet and you can eat several of them. The standard flavors are coffee and cinnamon, and eating chocolate or apple while drinking tea or coffee is a blissful experience.

Lemon flavor and royal milk tea flavor were added to commemorate the store's 20th anniversary. The lemon flavor has a slightly bitter chocolate taste, and the overall sweetness is refreshing, making it a flavor that adults prefer. Royal Milk Tea has a sweet taste that even children will enjoy, and the aroma of black tea will fill your mouth.

This is another popular standard product, Bits Chocolate Ball. Contains 5 types: sweet chocolate, strawberry, blueberry, lemon, and white chocolate.

These small sweets wrapped in cute packaging are sold at train stations and are a standard souvenir from TsuCity. The package design is also good, so the person who receives it will be happy. Especially popular with families with children!

I also buy chocolate when I feel like eating it. It's a dish that you can enjoy so many different flavors that you'll find yourself opening the bag one after another, and once you start eating it, you won't be able to stop. Before I knew it, my desk was full of colorful empty bags.

This is Coffee Bits chocolate. The packaging is chic and has a luxurious feel. The coffee is strong and the slightly bitter taste is delicious!

At the Harbor store, you can not only purchase chocolate apples and bits chocolate, but also have a cafe so you can enjoy parfaits and cakes. You can relax and enjoy the cafe menu in the open cafe space that is flooded with light from outside.

There is also outdoor seating, so you can eat there if the weather is nice (unfortunately, it was cold on the day we visited).

Menus such as cakes vary depending on the season. And the menu item you should definitely try at T2 Confectionery Workshop Harbor branch is "T2 Parfait"! This is a popular menu that is often posted on Instagram.

There is a chocolate board on top of the parfait, which includes chocolate cake, strawberry gelato, vanilla gelato, and fresh cream.

By pouring hot chocolate sauce onto this chocolate, it will gradually melt...

Then, once it melts and you can see the inside, enjoy your parfait. You can also enjoy watching it. The sourness of the berries, chocolate, and fresh cream go very well together, and the texture is crispy, so I finished it right away. I really recommend this.

In addition to chocolate, the store sells many attractive products such as ``Karinto,'' which comes in 11 different flavors in stylish packaging, and ``Kotohgi,'' a Baumkuchen made with chocolate kneaded into the dough.

The Harbor store is easily accessible by car from TsuNagisamachi, the port for ships to Centrair (Chubu Centrair International Airport), so we recommend visiting the store to purchase souvenirs.

T2's confectionery workshop has three stores including the Harbor store. This is "T2 COLLECTION" located in isshinden TsuCity.

This is a stylish shop located in an apartment block, right near the Mie Prefectural Cultural Center.

The Kitamarunouchi store in TsuCity is T2's first store, and the store is stocked with standard products. I'm so happy to be able to enjoy coffee while choosing products at the store!

T2's confectionery workshop has been loved locally for over 24 years, and was originally started by Fukujuken, a traditional Japanese confectionery shop that has continued for generations in daimon, TsuCity (currently Fukujuken). (not sold at).

In 1993, we opened a chocolate confectionery specialty store [T2's Confectionery Studio Kitamarunouchi store]. At that time, there were shops that sold Japanese and Western sweets, but chocolate was placed at the end of the shop and was not given much importance. Therefore, the current president and CEO, Toshio Sonobe, started a chocolate specialty store with the concept of ``friendly chocolate,'' and it became a popular store. Mr. Sonobe says, ``We will continue to aim to be a store that will be loved for a long time.'' The staff at T2 Confectionery Studio were very kind, and I now understand why.

When you come to Tsu, please stop by T2 Confectionery Studio to purchase souvenirs and enjoy the cafe menu!
