This snack store located inside the ticket gates at JR Tokyo Station is run by Tokyo Banana, known for its delicious little sponge cakes filled with banana cream.
The popular cake brand teamed up with Disney in November 2019 to open the first-ever Disney Sweets Collection by Tokyo Banana shop, selling special snacks and merchandise you can’t find anywhere else.
Here, you will find the brand’s famous sponge cakes with an adorable Disney design. Unlike its classic banana-shaped and banana-cream-filled cakes, the Disney version features a honey-flavoured custard and milk cream filling inside a sponge cake designed after Winnie the Pooh.
There are four designs, featuring different facial expressions of our favourite teddy bear.
Each box of Winnie the Pooh-themed cakes includes one adorable postcard. Since you won’t know which of the eight different designs are included in the box, you’ll have to buy a few to collect them all. One box contains eight treats and costs ¥1,360.
Disney Sweets Collection by Tokyo Banana is also popular for its langue de chat cookies with a piece of banana-milkshake-flavoured chocolate sandwiched in between them.
The store’s latest batch of cookies has a new Christmas-themed box design featuring Mickey, Minnie and their friends. There are three different designs imprinted on the cookies themselves, one Mickey Mouse motif, one of Minnie Mouse and one of Pluto. The box includes 28 cookies and costs ¥3,024.
There’s also a limited edition set that includes an adorable Christmas-themed Minnie and Mickey souvenir plate, measuring 19.5cm in diameter. One box costs ¥4,950. The special box is also available online and you can purchase it here.
You can also opt for the box designs with classic Disney motifs.
Disney Sweets Collection by Tokyo Banana changes special packaging designs regularly, so make sure to check the store’s official website (in Japanese only) for the latest updates.
