Sweet treats at Italian Tomato

12.04.09

The name might conjure up images of pasta dishes, but the glass displays full of pretty cakes and pastries would tell you different at The Italian Tomato in Costa Mesa. The little bakery is one of many popular Japanese food stalls at Mitsuwa Marketplace in Costa Mesa. There you can find unique Japanese-Italian-French confections, from Green Tea Tiramisu to Tart Pudding Cake (a white sponge cake with fresh fruits and a layer of tangy pudding), to the house-favorite Today’s Cake, which is white cake layered with delicately crispy phyllo dough, fruit and cream. Try the Mont Blanc, a creamy and not overly sweet chestnut cake with an icing that resembles spaghetti strands. During the week, nab a slice of any cake plus coffee or tea for $4.25. Or order a whole Strawberry or Chocolate cake for $25.

Italian Tomato is located at 665 Paularino Ave in Costa Mesa, inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace
