Valentine's Day chocolates in Japan often translate to stunning works of art that belie the simplicity of their components. Such is the case of the creations from the Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel, available for reservations until Feb. 13 and pickup on the big day itself.
The Cerulean Selection 2020 is perfect for the indecisive with the eight-piece ganache and praline assortment (¥3,240) featuring pistachio, white truffle, caramel, tonka bean, passion fruit, strawberry, jasmine and matcha flavors.
The intricate and spherical A Gift from the Star — Hommage de l'etoile — concoction (¥4,860, limited to 40 sets) showcases the incredible skills of the hotel's patissier. The six-piece Cocktail Chocolat (¥2,484) represents the best in boozy chocolate, with chefs and bartenders collaborating to deliver authentic mojito, negroni, Manhattan, French connection, tequila sunrise and pina colada flavors in a fabulously intoxicating bite.
