Special gateau chocolate
Gianluca Franzoni, the founder of the world’s best chocolate “DOMORI”, uses the world’s only chocolate “KEN’S BLEND CRIOLLO” prepared for Ken’s Cafe Tokyo. Alcohol and fragrance free. Gluten-free with no added flour.
It is a product that condenses the deep and rich cacao aroma, rich sweetness and refreshing acidity produced by high-quality chocolate. Price: 3,000 yen per piece (tax included)
Expiration date: 2 days at room temperature, 2 weeks if refrigerated Delicious way to enjoy
At room temperature, it has a moist texture and rich taste like terrine chocolate.
Cool it down… Chill it in the refrigerator to make the raw chocolate melt in your mouth. Enjoy the taste of chocolate itself.
Warm it… When you warm it up lightly in the microwave, the outside becomes fluffy, the rich chocolate melts inside, and the acidity and bitterness of the cacao become more pronounced, giving it a fondant chocolate-like texture.
