Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay Hotel Offering Halloween Sweets Throughout October

01.October.2021 | FOOD / SPOT

Cafe Toastina, located inside the Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay Hotel, will be serving up some Halloween-themed sweets throughout the month of October! While it’s possible to simply stop by and snag one of these monstrous treats, each Friday, a special Halloween edition of the popular Friday Sweets Buffet has also opened reservations. 

 

Jack-o’-lantern Tart: ¥800

 

How can you have Halloween without a carved pumpkin? Featuring dough filled with pumpkin and a topping of maple jelly and mousse, this cream-covered treat is sure to satisfy even the biggest sweet tooth. Atop the smiling pumpkin sits a cookie, chestnuts, pistachio cream, and a ghost made of chocolate. (Actually, it might be too cute to eat.) 

 

 

Monster Cream Puff: ¥800

 

This puff pastry is filled to the brim with custard cream and apple compote, then topped with sweet potato vanilla mousse. The monster’s face is made with purple sweet potato cream and chocolate, which makes this the perfect treat for autumn. 

 

 

Pistachio Frankenstein: ¥800

 

Crunchy chocolate sits atop this ghoulish mix of pistachio mousse, chocolate, and cherry jelly. Decorated to resemble one of the most recognizable Halloween monsters, each eyeball is made of white chocolate. The result? He might be more cute than scary. 

 

 

Mummy Bread (pictured left): ¥400

 

Each one of these fluffy treats is made with a mix of cocoa-flavored dough and cookie dough and filled with chocolate custard, fresh cream, and raspberry jam. 

 

 

Jack-o’-lantern Meat Danish (pictured right): ¥500

 

Each crispy pastry is filled with beef bolognese, three types of mushrooms, and bechamel sauce, before being baked to perfection. 

 

The #SheratonSweetsBox (October Edition)

 

Each month, a new collection of eight mini-sweets is released by the hotel. The limited-edition October box is packed with a jack-o’-lantern, a one-eyed monster, and Frankenstein peeking out from the lid. 

 

Along with all of these tasty snacks, the hotel itself will be decorated in line with the theme of ‘Halloween Laboratory.’ Staff members will be dressed in white lab coats, and guests may feel like some scary monsters have escaped–so don’t miss out on this full Halloween experience!

  • Report: Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s Tasty Time in Gastropolis Kobe – Sweets Edition

    03.December.2022 | FEATURES / FOOD / SPOT

    Kobe is filled with famous sightseeing spots like the nostalgic Ijinkan neighborhood and port. The city is packed with fashionable shops and restaurants and is highly regarded for its selection of tasty sweets!

    The port city, with over 150 years of history, has fostered a unique and diverse culinary culture.

     

    Recently, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu began starring in a series of promotional videos for the Gastropolis Kobe project. The artist traveled to the city to partake in plenty of delicious treats, and MOSHI MOSHI NIPPON went along for the ride! Here are some of the singer’s favorite spots around town.

    Kobe, known as a city where East meets West, is lined with sweets shops that are unique to the area.

     

    The tea salon TOOTH TOOTH Dekoboko Sabo opened in 2019 in the Kobe City Museum and offers a menu that mixes Western food and sweets with tea and ingredients from traditional Japanese cuisine. Kyary ordered the Dekoboko Sabo Afternoon Tea Set, a collection of western sweets blended with the essence of traditional Japanese flavors. Guests are invited to enjoy their tea and sweets in a one-of-a-kind space filled with Meiji period flare and retro Western furniture. Those interested will need to make a reservation, so be sure to remember the next time you’re in Kobe.

     

    TOOTH TOOTH Decoboco Sabo

    Address: 24 Kyomachi, Chuo Ward, Kobe (Inside the Kobe City Museum)

    Hours: 9:30-17:30 (Last Order at 16:30) 

    Closed Mondays

    Official Site: https://toothtooth.com/restaurant/decoboco-sabo

    The next stop was Kobe Nankin-machi, one of the three major Chinatowns in Japan. Kobe MILK is known nationwide for its Apricot Pudding, which is made with local ingredients. The raw apricot pudding is mixed with milk brought from the foot of Mt. Rokko and other ingredients from Hyogo Prefecture. Of course, Kyary ordered some, and was amazed by its fluffy texture. You can only enjoy it in Kobe–also, the shop sells other puddings mixed with seasonal fruits, so don’t miss those either!

     

    Kobe MILK

    Address: Shin-Motomachi Building 1F (1 Motomachi-dori, Chuo-ku, Kobe)

    Hours: Weekdays 9:30-19:00 / Weekends 9:30-19:30

    Official Site: https://kobe-milk.com

    For Kyary’s final stop, the singer visited the Moore House, a cafe located in a building with over 100 years of history. Guests are surrounded by greenery, and the Western-style building is incredibly elegant. The Strawberry Mille-feuille Kyary ordered was created by an expert patissier and based on the strawberry mille-feuille recipe from the legendary French restaurant Maxim’s de Paris in Ginza. A generous amount of custard cream complements the crispy pie crust and enhances the sweetness of the fresh strawberries. We’d recommend it with a glass of champagne–if you’re of age.

    Kitano Ijin-kan Moore House

    Address: 2-9-3 Kitanocho, Chuo-ku, Kobe

    Hours: 11:00-17:00

    Closed Tuesdays

    Official Site: https://www.kitanomoore.com/cafe/

     

    The streets of Kobe are packed with sweets that you can only enjoy if you visit. Why not come experience these incredible spots like Kyary did?
