About this place
Set along a shopping street in Akatsuka, Itabashi Ward, patisserie Ciel bleu d'automne specializes in handmade sweets made to be enjoyed at home. The egg tarts draw steady interest for their flaky crust and gently sweet custard filling, delicious straight from the counter or rewarmed later. The shop's signature rare cheesecake is equally well regarded, striking a balance between creamy richness and a clean, light finish that melts away cleanly on the palate.
The refrigerated counter features seasonal and year-round items, including a moist weekend citron accented with the sharp acidity of Setouchi lemon and a baked cheesecake finished with vivid strawberries. Cold options round out the selection, from açaí ice topped with mango and berries to a crème brûlée custard ice cream with a crackling caramelized cap, alongside fruit-forward smoothies.
The shop operates exclusively for takeout, though an automated vending machine outside dispenses chiffon cakes and other treats even outside counter hours. Cashless options including PayPay and Rakuten Pay make it an easy stop for a casual afternoon dessert or an everyday treat.
