Number Sugar

Homeade caramels that specialize in caramel, made with real ingredients in simplistic wrapping. Each number on the wrapper designates a flavor such as salt, vanilla, chocolate, etc. The flavor and texture is too good. Definitely hit this up if you’re in the area walking/​shopping.

A caramel specialty store off of Cat Street in Omotesando/​Meiji-​jingu Mae area.
Sometimes, a delicious sweets shop finds you, instead of you finding it. My co-​workers and I were wondering the Cat Street Shopping district after checking out a new shopping building «Six harajuku terrace». All the sudden, this cute looking store confronts us. We all know the city well, but we all had no idea what was sold inside «Number Sugar». Do they sell sugar? Does not sound a profitable business in Aoyama.
Inside, I see a kitchen with workers cleaning it. It was late in the day, so I guess they were finishing up whatever they were making. Lets checkout the products. I see a box with 12 sticks wrapped in white paper with a number on it. Not until I read the description did I realize that these were caramels. The number represented the taste of each caramel like vanilla, salt, chocolate, raspberry, etc.
COST: A box of 12 was 1100 Yen. That a bit less than 100 Yen per stick. Cheap or expensive. Hmmmm. Hard to say.
TASTE: Delicious. I had never tasted caramel this good. They use natural ingredients and make them in-​house.
CONCLUSION: There are plenty of premium chocolate shops, but not one that specializes in caramel. For some reason, it is fair to charge 500 Yen per piece of chocolate, but you are not allowed to charge so much for caramel. Less then 100 Yen per stick I think is very reasonable. In fact, I kept wondering how this place stays in business at a such high rent district. You better sell lots of 100 Yen caramels to pay rent. All I know is that I get the same kick eating 100 Yen caramel as eating 500 Yen chocolate, so I will keep coming back here for more.

I am in love!
Number Sugar is a homemade caramel shop. Everything is made in the shop; the kitchen is on the right and you’ll find the chef stirring his pots of caramel while another staff is sitting on one side hand wrapping each piece of cooled caramel in simple white wrappers.
My god, the same in here is heavenly! When I walked in today, they were just making ginger caramel… my eyes rolled all the why the back of my head as I go on a natural high. I immediately looked around to see if they had a posting to hire because I sooooooo wish I can live here!!!
The shop is decorated like an old chemist or candy shop with a round wooden table in the middle of the store, displaying caramel in different types of cans and packaging. In the front of the shop is the small low table, a sofa and a few stools if you want to sit down and nibble on your caramel.
Oh yes! They also sell coffee by the kitchen!
It’s love at first sight for me, I’m so glad I got nosy and walked in.
I now declare myself a loyal fan of Number Sugar!
