Experience the Richness of Two New Premium Pound Cakes

Hotel InterContinental Tokyo Bay has unveiled two exclusive premium pound cakes, available for reservation starting October 1, 2025. Located in the heart of Minato, Tokyo, the N.Y. Lounge Boutique at the hotel presents these beautifully crafted cakes that promise an indulgent experience combining rich spirits and carefully selected ingredients.

Introducing the Flavorful Cakes

The first creation is called Prestige, a classic pound cake that is infused with the renowned Hennessy X.O, a cognac widely regarded as the king of spirits. This pound cake is crafted with a careful process that involves aging, allowing the cake to absorb the complex and luxurious aromas of Hennessy X.O, which boasts over 100 different types of vintage spirits (eau-de-vie). Each slice reveals a harmonious blend of the cognac’s bold fragrance and the gentle sweetness of its ingredients, featuring large shining Tamba black soybeans and a refined sweetness from Japanese chestnuts that adorn the top of the cake elegantly.



Next up is the Pom D'Or, a masterpiece that incorporates a rare form of Calvados, specifically the luxurious Cœur de Lyon Pom Prisonnière, which has been matured meticulously with apples. This pound cake exemplifies the richness of flavors, created with fermented butter, fragrant pistachios, and fruit such as apricots, griotte cherries, and cranberries—all soaked in Calvados for an elevated taste profile. The piquant taste of the fruits combined with the toasty flavor of pistachio beautifully enriches the cake, while the delicate apple aroma from the special Calvados rounds out this exquisite treat.

Reservation Details

These pound cakes, priced at ¥10,000 each, are perfect for special gifts, memorable occasions, or just a treat for oneself. To reserve your own luxurious pound cake, please ensure you place your order at least five days in advance by 5 PM.
