Claim Text:
1. An electrostatic latent image developing toner comprising: toner particles each including a toner core containing a binder resin, and a shell layer coating a surface of the toner core, wherein the shell layer contains an acrylamide polymer crosslinked with methylol melamine, the shell layer has a thickness of 1 nm or more and 20 nm or less, and when toner characteristics are evaluated through a test in which heat and pressure are applied to a toner layer formed on a polyester film under conditions of a temperature of 140° C. and a pressure of 7 MPa so that the toner particles are not superimposed, the toner particles of the toner layer are broken in a manner that a melt of a component of the toner core flows out from a plurality of points in an outer surface of the shell layer.
