A Lovely European-styled shop offering delicious vegan sweets and drinks for takeout
La Maison Rose is a shop located in Komatsushima, Aoba-ku, Sendai city. They specialize in vegan food such as baked sweets, bagels, granolas, and drinks for takeaway.
All the items on the menu don’t use any eggs, dairy products, processed sugar, and honey, which can be enjoyed by not only vegans and also those who are suffering from allergies to eggs and dairy products.
The owner is from Switzerland and she can speak Japanese, English, and French. She enjoys creating the original vegan sweets using organic ingredients as much as possible, based on the traditional sweets from Switzerland which she grew up with, and signature sweets from Europe and the US. She finds it rewarding to see Japanese people enjoying the new sweets.
“Special of the day” items and must-try vanilla latte
At La Maison Rose, the menu for baked sweets changes every day. They have regular items rotated such as banana muffins, cinnamon rolls, oat meal raisin cookies, pumpkin spice cakes, linzertorte, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, Earl Grey scones, and lemon pound cake) as well as seasonal special items available. You will always feel excited to try something different.
On the day of interview (January 2021), I had “Strawberry triful.” “Strawberry triful” is made of layers of vanilla sponge cake, organic vanilla bean custard, strawberry comport, and soy whipped cream. The whipped cream is made from soy milk and coconut milk instead of using dairy products, so it was so light and delicious that I finished it in seconds.
The must-try drink is “Vanilla latte” made with homemade vanilla syrup. This latte is different from the ordinary ones that come with artificial flavors and are overly sweet. This is the real vanilla latte with organic vanilla beans which you will see the black bits when you drink it and it is not overly sweet. This is by far the best vanilla latte I ever had and I was very impressed.
“Banana nut granola” has bananas, walnuts, and almonds which are mildly sweeten with agave syrup, a natural sweetener known for low GI (which doesn’t cause blood sugar spike.) “Pumpkin spice granola” is toasted with fragrant spices, which can be quite unique and rare in Japan.
A shop that is concious of the environment, kind to people, tresures the connection with people
Cups and straws provided here for iced drinks are made from starches. They are biodegradable materials (capable of being discomposed by bacterias,) which means that they won’t generate toxic gas or residuals when being burnt.
Organic sweets can typically be quite expensive due to the high price of organic ingredients, but at La Maison Rose, they offer such affordable sweets (250 – 700 yen) for decent sized delicious sweets.
They have lots of regulars visiting here. I saw several customers chatting with the owner. It is a such lovely European-styled shop, I can totally relate to why they keep coming back again and again.
