We missed out on the chance to try the matcha cloud cakes from Kumonocha Cafe (雲ノ茶) while we were paying a visit to Sannenzaka two days ago. But after bumping into their café on Arashiyama's shopping strip again this afternoon, we knew it was our last chance to take action.
Because the café was decorated predominantly in white and blue color, we almost got a feeling that we were having our heads in the cloud. 😉
I got mom and little guy all settled down before queuing up for my order. This was when the bad news arrived. The matcha cloud cakes were ALL sold out! Tough luck...

I eventually ordered something for little nugget although he was disappointed not to sink his teeth into the cloud cake. But if there's any consolation, I did get the special drink served in a gold fish tank for him. It's also in the same blue color!
Since I wasn't a fan of gold fish, I got myself an iced matcha latte instead.
It was disappointing for all of us that we never get to taste the cloud but at least we do have something to look forward to on our next trip to Arashiyama.
