I would really love to know how they get the bread to turn pink. I'm pretty sure it's not food coloring because the bread is very sweet (but not in a sugar added kind of way). After baking, they pour a simple icing on top. It's called "berry berry bread," but the only berries I've ever found in it are cranberries, and that's fine with me. It's sooooo delicious!!! 
Next is another of my favorites that ranks, for sure, in the top 5. 
It's a mini baguette with a wiener covered in ketchup and spicy mustard! This is sooo good. I think they pop it into the oven for a short time after putting the ketchup and mustard on because it somehow melds itself to the bread. A very yummy lunch or snack. <3
This is a walnut cranberry bread that is hard on the outside and chewy on the inside. It also happens to be my second favorite bread. I really love how the cranberries give it bursts of flavor and extra chewiness. 
Last but not least, is a nice and tasty blueberry tea muffin. My only complaint is that I'm not in love with the somewhat tasteless dried blueberries. But seeing as how 20 fresh blueberries costs around 10$ in Japan for the 2 weeks they're in season, I can understand why they used dried berries. When I first moved to Japan, I took cooking lessons at a cooking school and one time we made tea pound cake. At the time, my appreciation of tea was very low and adding it to a cake was not my idea of good eats. But in the end, it was extremely delicious (especially after I let it sit out for a day or two). The tea adds a slightly bitter flavor to the sweet cake to make a nice balance. I really want to make cakes like this in the future. 
For my flight home I'm definitely going to be bringing some Danken with me!!
