Experience Details
Discover Japanese hospitality and culture in the sweetest way possible with this dessert workshop in Tokyo!
One of the most popular desserts you’ll come across during the fall season in Japan is the Mont Blanc Tartelette. Although this dessert may appear complicated, this sweet class is suitable for all skill levels and will be guided by a professional instructor. This delightful treat is a fusion of European and Japanese culinary traditions, resulting in a dessert that is as visually captivating as it is delicious.
Imagine a petite tartelette with a buttery, crisp crust that crumbles with each bite. Nestled within is a generous dollop of silky, chestnut cream—a hallmark of the Mont Blanc. This velvety delight is carefully piped onto the crust, creating an intricate swirl reminiscent of a mountain peak. But what truly sets the Japanese Mont Blanc Tartelette apart is its attention to detail. The chestnut cream is rich in flavor, striking a perfect balance between sweet and nutty. The texture is heavenly, velvety smooth with a touch of creaminess that melts in your mouth. Sorry, we’re getting carried away! Ok, let’s get down to Mont Blanc Tartelette-business.
Your sweet adventure will begin with an icebreaker and a brief explanation of the menu. Once you’ve soaked up this knowledge, it’s time to create your Mont Blanc Tartelette! You’ll stretch out your dough to make the pastry before popping it into the oven to bake. Next, it’s time to test your fine motor skills as you use a piping bag to swirl the chestnut cream onto your perfect, golden tartelette. Once your tartelette is complete, you’ll learn dessert photography skills so you can snap some memories to take home with you.
All ingredients used during this class are hand selected by your instructor, and you’ll get to choose between various flavors: matcha (green tea), cocoa, sakura.
