Hachimitsu Altena – Honey chestnut cakes by Konigs Krone

No reviews yet

Konigs Krone is a Western-style confectionery shop born in 1977 in Mikage, Kobe. You can enjoy simple, gentle cakes and sweets like the ones a German mother would make for her family.

The most popular item is this Hachimitsu Altena!
The name Altena comes from a West German city known for its old Altena Castle. You can picture noblewomen of medieval Germany enjoying cake over tea.

This cake comes in two flavors, chocolate and matcha (powdered green tea).
In both, a large, soft chestnut sits in the middle of dough rich with honey and butter flavor.
It is delicious as it is, but if you warm it slightly, the chocolate inside melts and gives you a different kind of deliciousness!

The packaging is also charming. Kobe's attention to detail shows everywhere: mini cups printed with Konigs Krone's character, Pochi the bear, luxurious wooden boxes, and Mino ware jars with a Japanese feel.
There are many sizes and flavors to choose from, so you should find one that suits the recipient's taste and the number of people.

Good to know before you fly
