With a large round shape approximately 15 cm in diameter, it leaves quite the visual impact♡
Its gentle sweetness and nostalgic flavor make it a favorite across generations.
The retro-designed tins are another charming point.
They make gorgeous gifts or souvenirs, and the excitement starts the moment you open the lid♪

For grown-ups who love flavor: “Au Goûter” Gaufres♡
In addition to the classic three, the tea, matcha, and coffee flavors in the Au Goûter Gaufres are also delightful♡
As the name suggests—“Gaufres for tea time”—the fragrant creams gently spread in your mouth, offering a comforting, soothing flavor.
Perfect for coffee breaks or reading time, they make for a sophisticated treat♡
You can also find mixed sets with the classic flavors!
Gaufres Duo Goûter D30 / ¥3,240
Packaged in a red tin, this luxurious set includes both the aromatic tea, matcha, and coffee flavors, and the ever-popular vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate.
With six flavors to enjoy at once, it's perfect as a gift—or for anyone who just can’t decide♡
Small in size, big in taste: Petite Gaufres♡
Petite Gaufres were created in response to customer requests—a mini-sized version of the original Gaufres♡
With the same delicious taste but half the size (7.5 cm), they’re even more convenient to enjoy!
Just like the original, you can enjoy vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate flavors in a compact size that still delivers satisfaction.
There’s also a fun series called Choifres that lets you enjoy “a little of your favorite flavor”♡
“Choifres” is a playful name combining “choice” and “Gaufres,” letting you pick your favorite from five flavors: vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, chocolate orange, and rich matcha!
Each flavor comes in packaging featuring adorable animal designs like pandas, hedgehogs, bears, penguins, and raccoons.
They’re so cute, you’ll want to collect them all♡
With three pieces per pack, they’re the perfect bite-sized indulgence for sweet cravings or small gifts◎
Only available here: Store-exclusive “Gaufunya”♡
The Gaufunya is a new take on the Gaufres, offering a soft, moist texture—only available in limited quantities at the Motomachi Main Store♡
Each piece is carefully baked using the traditional pressed baking method, and features honey-infused wafers filled with aromatic vanilla and cassonade-sugar-accented buttercream♪
The soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture and gentle moistness are completely addictive♡
The buttercream gradually soaks into the wafer over time, enhancing the flavor—an experience unique to Gaufunya.
This exclusive treat from the main store, with its fresh-made taste and special charm, makes the perfect Kobe memory♡
