The Hyatt Regency Tokyo is offering seven varieties of the hotel's original Christmas cakes that have always captured the hearts of many.
The new creation for 2016 by Koichi Sato, the pastry and bakery chef, is the 40 cm-high Christmas tree (¥17,000 for one of the limited run of 10 trees). The tree itself is made from four carefully prepared layers of ganache that contains cherries and nuts. The result is a wonderful harmony of different aromas and flavors.
The cute snowman cake (¥4,000 for a limited run of 80 cakes), meanwhile, catches the eye with seven snowmen perched on the cake top. Made from mascarpone mousse, the cake perfectly captures the texture of real snow.
