(Tues) Dalloyau: Tarte Mangue

Had a long run under the impression that Eclat des Jours was open Fri to Tue, when actually they are open Thu to Mon, but sometimes Tue (yesterday was not one of those open Tue times). On the plus side, the return run was much more comfortable without carrying cake. My backup was Dalloyau, which added less than 1 km (total run was about 22 km; 10 km/h out but 9 km/h average over the total). Another disappoint was that it did not rain as forecast, so it remained hot. My purpose in want to go to Dalloyau was to get the Tarte Mangue (540 yen).

The tart was the usual high quality. It was firm custard on sablé, or something similar, with a layer of mango gelatin on top. It was definitely good but very mild and not very interesting to me. To the best of my knowledge, that catches me up on all available fresh cakes at Dalloyau, but hopefully there will be something new next week with the start of the new month, though some shops wait for the first full week or maybe just the first weekend in the new month to introduce new cakes.
