Caramelized Walnuts Sandwich
Shittori Gateau Chocolate Cake (made with France Chocolate)
Can you tell which tea flavour each belong too? (From left) Matcha Sencha Houjicha
The Matcha and Houjicha Mont Blanc are creations above the notch as the intensity of the tea played down the sugariness and cloyiness that one might fear of a traditional French Mont Blanc. 
Each piece contained an elastic mochi pastry skin that is filled with fresh Chantily and sponge, then piped subsequently with either matcha bean paste or houjicha bean paste.
Sometimes the usual matcha roll or green tea parfaits can become all too-common. And thus I was delighted to spot this new summer creation on the shell. What an arduous task it must have been for the chefs to assemble the chestnut mousse, pear and peach mousse neatly onto the bitter matcha mousse and sponge. But the results were rewarding--the mousse were smooth and fruity, without abusing the sugar.
