Prices have been rising since August, and a supermarket in Higashi Ward reported that a carton now costs approximately 20 yen \u2013 30 yen more than last year. FBS also visited La Vie en Rose, a cake shop in Hakata Ward that uses around 10 kg of eggs daily. The shop reported egg costs approximately 20% higher than usual and has raised its Christmas cake prices by about 5% compared with last year. During the Christmas season, the shop typically produces more than 1,000 cakes, tripling its normal egg consumption.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/news.ntv.co.jp\/n\/fbs\/category\/economy\/fs5bd8638d52d74cd19c40ac4eaa8c8414\" target=\"_blank\">FBS News<\/a>, November 11, 2026<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/fnn_christmas-cake-image_2026_WEB.jpeg?resize=1400%2C1050&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-180885\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/fnn_christmas-cake-image_2026_WEB.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/fnn_christmas-cake-image_2026_WEB.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/fnn_christmas-cake-image_2026_WEB.jpeg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/fnn_christmas-cake-image_2026_WEB.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><br \/>\nPhoto: Fukuoka Now<\/p>\n<p>Get Fukuoka and Kyushu\u2019s top stories delivered to your inbox.
