モンテ ビアンコ、￥５００。ババ。
From two separate visits.
Monte Bianco. Italian version of Mont Blanc. Bottom is merengue, then chestnut paste, topped with a mountain of cream. Nice but….too sweet! Even the cream is sweetened. It is very big too. I only managed to eat half. Baba with lemon liquor.

カフェミスティ、￥１１００。
Dessert plate with espresso-flavoured sorbet, ice-cream, mousse and semi-freddo in a cup shape. Not bad. Very strong espresso taste. Though it doesn’t look as nice as the picture in the menu…^^;;
Menu: 1, 2, 3.

金銀財宝、￥５００。
Not kakigori, not sorbet, but “snowflake ice” apparently. Originated from Taiwan. It does feels very fluffy and feathery. I had the one with mango and mango sauce on it. The shop is in the middle of the busiest street in Akihabara.

A cake shop that does wedding cakes. We had the strawberry roll cake(apparently not made into a bear face on purpose ^^;;), short cake, and rare cheese cake. Old-fashioned neighbourhood cake shop kinda taste. Nice and comforting though. Also got the Marron chocolate which is a big non-sweetened marron with chocolate coating.

Cakes made with vegetables. Left is raddish and chocolate, right is roll cake with tomato. Both are pretty bad…^^;;; The patissier chef is a young and pretty lady who goes on TV food shows sometimes.

Local apple pie shop. The apple are in huge chunks and taste fresh and not too sweet. Custard underneath the apple too. Very good.

061021 075They also have very nice cookies. Light and fluffy and crispy all at once. The one in the pack has ginger taste, very spicy and good! Not in picutres are marron galette, macaron and financier. All very good.

The cake shop is in Yokohama. A bit far for me, but it is only about 3 mins walk from the nearest train station and they have a cafe for eating in. I have tried their cakes before(see tag) when they had a booth space inside a food mall in Shibuya station.

Marron glace ice-cream, 1890ye. Plus 10% service charge…so expensive and totally not worth it. Just watery vanilla ice-cream with like 2 micro pieces of marron glace.
