    Great to hear..Kenji is continuing their legacy! A slice of coffee crunch whenever we were near J town. Hatsi was a love. Good to see Moses overseeing the bakery..enjoy retirement!

    I adore this bakery. Lovely kind people and a simply superb product. They are an important fixture in Japantown and San Francisco.

    Have been eating coffee crunch cake for 72 years. For decades from Blum's. Now--as recent as Mother's Day--our son bought one from Sweet Shop.It's one of a kind and really good. Grateful to Mr. Yosukochi took on the legacy many years ago and glad it was a viable business. Now, if only Kenji will keep it going!!

    What a great story and business. I take my hat off to Yasukochi-San and especially his grandson for opting to maintain their family legacy, a rare occurrence with today's youth.

    Amazing and so wonderful to hear this story! Crunch cake looked delish!
    5 generations and it's still going strong.
    Well done to Kenji for continuing.
    I'm Australian-Japanese with Japanese descendency.
    Yep definitely don't cut back on quality, that's key 🗝.
    Thanks for the warm feel goods. Loved this 💖

    I remember seeing a profile on them a few years ago. It’s good to see them doing well.
    It’s a shame it’s so far away. If I’m ever in the area I’d love to try it. ❤
