Vegan cereals

When I was working at Harken coffee, Tomoko Tahara made a series of flavoured puffed rice cereals.

Since the menu was dine in basis, the cereal was simple, combination of toppings and flavoured milk made the charactor of the cereals.

This time is packaged so it has flavours in the cereals.

There are two kinds. Tamari candied almonds and seeds, brown sugar oats, raisins and cocoa nibs. Nice variety of flavours and texture, and good saltiness from the Tamari.

An another one is marshmallow puffed rice and almonds, seeds, freeze dried blueberries.

Not only for your breakfast, they both can be a dessert with good creamy “m*lk”. & fresh fruits, and nice with vegan ice creams.

Oh wait! Vegan miso “butter” is new item too.

Available for online pre-orders, as well as in store at Harken coffee (338 Powell street)
