Provided is an electrostatic latent image developing toner comprising toner matrix particles that comprise resin components comprising a vinyl resin as a main component and a crystalline resin, and a mold release agent. The electrostatic latent image developing toner includes a structural body in which a portion of the crystalline resin is in contact with the mold release agent, and a portion of the crystalline resin having a thread-like structure that is not in contact with the mold release agent, in cross-sections of the toner matrix particles.
