The “Ohanami Kappa Parfait”: A Feast for the Eyes and Palate
Embrace the spirit of “ohanami” (cherry blossom viewing) with the newly launched “Ohanami Kappa Parfait.” Priced at 800 yen (tax included), this vibrant dessert is designed to bring the joy of a portable matcha tea ceremony to your spring outings. It features layers of moist matcha sponge cake, a sweet-sour strawberry anko (red bean paste) and sauce, and a subtly sweet kome koji (fermented rice malt) pudding. The parfait is elegantly topped with salted cherry blossoms and arare (rice crackers), adding both visual appeal and a delicate salty note.
Imagine strolling along the Sumida River or visiting a historic temple, a beautifully crafted “Ohanami Kappa Parfait” in hand – it’s the perfect way to capture the essence of a Tokyo spring!
Aromatic Indulgence: The Cardamom Series
Complementing the parfait, Sensing Touch of Earth introduces a fragrant cardamom series, crafted with homemade cardamom syrup. This unique collection offers a refreshing twist to your cafe experience.
