A Valentine’s Extravaganza of Chocolate and Charm Arrives in Shibuya
Roasted COFFEE LABORATORY, a celebrated purveyor of freshly roasted coffee and artisanal sweets, is set to captivate hearts this Valentine’s season. Their Shibuya Jinnan store is unveiling a limited-edition menu that promises pure indulgence: a lavish chocolate-drenched biscuit pancake and a duo of delightful chocolate-orange drinks. This special offering, available from January 30, 2026, perfectly embodies the spirit of sweet affection and sophisticated flavor.
The “Choco Berry Biscuit Pancake”: A Symphony of Decadence
The fan-favorite biscuit pancake transforms into a Valentine’s masterpiece with the introduction of the “Choco Berry Biscuit Pancake.” This seasonal delight features fragrant cocoa dough generously layered with rich Valrhona chocolate cream, tart raspberry sauce, and delicate kirsch cream. It’s a truly luxurious dish, designed to offer that delightful “guilty pleasure” sensation—a common sentiment in Japanese food culture where indulgence is celebrated as a special treat. Drizzling hot chocolate sauce over the top further intensifies the experience, creating a profound depth of flavor that pairs exquisitely with a freshly brewed coffee.
For those seeking an even grander indulgence, a special LINE coupon offers an increased serving of chocolate sauce, or it can be added for an additional ¥150. This promotion runs from January 30 to February 15, 2025, inviting patrons to connect with the official LINE account for this sweet bonus.
“Chocolate x Orange”: A Harmonious Drink Duo
Complementing the pancake are two new beverages that place the refreshing combination of chocolate and orange center stage:
-
Orange Mocha Frappuccino (Iced): This invigorating iced drink blends an orange-based smoothie with espresso chocolate sauce and citrus fruit pulp. The result is a perfectly balanced medley of sweetness, bitterness, and acidity. Stir in the whipped cream and enjoy the delightful texture of the fruit pulp for a multi-sensory experience.
-
Orange Mocha (Hot): A warm embrace of classic café mocha, elevated with the bright zest of orange jam. The subtle sweetness and bitter notes of the mocha are beautifully enhanced by the aromatic orange, offering a sophisticated and adult-oriented flavor profile.
