Indulge in Minimal's New Mint Chocolate Gateau for a Summer Treat

Discover the Refreshing Mint Chocolate Gateau from Minimal

As the summer heat approaches, Minimal is set to impress dessert lovers with its latest offering: the Mint Chocolate Gateau. This exquisite creation will be available for purchase on July 15, 2025, through their online store and in-store at Minimal The Baking in Yoyogi Uehara starting from July 19, 2025. What makes this dessert stand out is its commitment to natural flavors, using no artificial colors but instead celebrating the fresh taste of mint.

A Taste of Nature

The new Mint Chocolate Gateau harnesses the rich flavors of three varieties of mint—apple mint, spearmint, and peppermint—from Niikura Farm, known for cultivating over 150 types of herbs in Nishitokyo, Tokyo. The farm is well-respected among renowned chefs and restaurants in the Tokyo area for its aromatic and fresh mint. Each bite of the gateau promises a burst of natural mint flavor, making it a perfect choice for warm summer days.

Mousse & Texture

Crafted without coloring agents, the mousse layer showcases the pure essence of mint. The mousse features a delightful blend of spearmint’s refreshing essence and the sweetness of apple mint, finished off with the invigorating coolness of peppermint. Careful extraction of the mint's stem and leaves ensures that the gateau retains its delicate fragrance and vibrant appearance.

The gateau is constructed with a rich and fruity chocolate base on the bottom, created using cacao beans from Peru, known for their light and fruity characteristics. This chocolate concoction marries beautifully with a crunchy chocolate cookie layer within the mousse, providing a satisfying crunch that elevates the overall flavor profile.

Serving Tips

For the best experience, consider enjoying the gateau slightly frozen—similar to ice cream. As it begins to thaw, you will notice a delightful transformation in the texture of the mousse, allowing you to relish in the refreshing flavor synonymous with mint chocolate ice cream, making it a pleasant treat for hot summers.
