DESCRIPTION:

The owner’s long-held dream was to create a warm and cozy space for people to enjoy desserts and that dream came true 10 years ago when Purin-no-Mori opened its doors to the public. The interior is over 2 floors and feels like a woodland maze, inviting exploration. 

 

MENU DETAILS:

Traditionally, purin is a custard dessert with a thin layer of caramel sauce, but here they have pushed the boundaries by creating a whole host of tantalizing flavours. Along with their classic "Custard" they offer rare cheese, cappuccino, Yamato tea, Mont Blanc and sakura flavors to name but a few. You can also get some purin-inspired cookies, jam, roll cake and jelly.

 

ACCESS:

Located not too far from where the famed Nara Dreamland used to be. Catch the #115 Nara Koutsu City Bus and alight at Takanohara Golf Course Bus Stop. It takes about 6 minutes and drops you off right outside. Rent-a-cycle is also another viable option.
