"There is not much work that impresses people, but in such a situation, I feel very happy to be pleased with customers when it is delicious," says Yamamoto, who is most particular about the material. is.
In order to make truly delicious food, we always use fresh and seasonal ingredients.
"Western sweets are roughly divided into raw and baked goods, but baked goods are interesting. It is difficult to express individuality with baked confectionery with a fixed degree of formulation. How do you devise a formula and create your own personality? I make dozens of prototypes and have my wife sample them. That's why Omojiro is rewarding," says Yamamoto, who says that what you need to make Western confectionery is "passion."
I thought, "By expressing what I learned in my body, I will become a property." In addition to teaching and training employees, I have been a lecturer in Western confectionery classes at a confectionery school.
