This boutique café brings the world-renowned creations of Tokyo’s "Grand Dame of Specialty Cakes," Madame Kazuko Emy Wada, right to the heart of Araneta City. Its bright and inviting space offers a sophisticated retreat for mall-goers looking to indulge in a premium sweet treat or a quiet afternoon coffee break.
The hallmark of Paper Moon Cafe is its commitment to meticulous craftsmanship, specifically its mastery of the Mille Crepe. Each signature cake features no less than twenty layers of paper-thin, handmade crepes, painstakingly stacked with light-as-air pastry cream. This dedication to quality ensures a "melt-in-your-mouth" texture that has earned the brand a loyal global following. Beyond sweets, the café also serves a curated selection of savory Japanese-Western fusion dishes, making it a versatile spot for any time of day.
No visit is complete without trying the Original Mille Crepe, celebrated for its golden, caramelized crust and velvety layers. For those seeking local flavors, the Mango Mille Crepe, made with fresh Philippine mangoes, is a refreshing tropical must-try. If you are in the mood for something savory, the Classic Lasagna or the Gyudon Bowl offer satisfying, hearty options that pair perfectly with their selection of barista-crafted coffees.
