A Japanese twist on the classic British scone, handcrafted with roasted hojicha and white chocolate.
Experience a comforting fusion of Japan’s tea culture and British baking tradition with our Hojicha & White Chocolate Scones. Made in small batches in our London kitchen with organic hojicha — a roasted green tea from Japan — these scones offer a nutty, mellow flavour and warm, toasty aroma, naturally low in caffeine and gentle on the palate.
Each scone is folded with crunchy white chocolate chips for sweetness and texture. The result is a tender, flavourful bake that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with clotted cream and butter, or even anko (sweet red bean paste) for a Japanese-style cream tea.
Whether you're enjoying a quiet moment at home or sharing a thoughtful gift, these scones bring a taste of Japan to your table.
