“Jean Blangerie†is a well-known place that delivered bread to the Blue House in the past. The “mammoth bread†here is so popular that it can only be purchased in limited quantities at a fixed time. Mammoth, which is thoroughly filled with pea paste, chestnuts, jam, red bean paste, and fresh cream between firm soboro bread, has a heavy flavor. The cream isn't very sweet, so you can eat it casually until the end.
