Discover Joel Robuchon's Seasonal Delight: 'Eté' Summer Stollen

As summer approaches, the culinary world anticipates the arrival of exquisite seasonal treats, and this year, Joel Robuchon has outdone himself. Available at all branches of 'La Boutique de Joël Robuchon', 'Le Pain de Joël Robuchon', and 'Le Café La Boutique de Joël Robuchon' in Toranomon Hills, the limited-time offer from May 12, 2025, through the end of August promises a refreshing experience that combines the essence of summer with traditional pastry techniques.

What is 'Eté'?

The 'Eté' Summer Stollen is a delightful confection that stands true to its festive roots, utilizing the same craftsmanship that defines the classic Christmas stollen. This creation is infused with the refreshing flavors of Setouchi lemon and aromatic lavender, making it the ideal dessert for the warm season. Each bite reveals a symphony of flavors: luscious lemon confit embraces delicate white chocolate, balancing tartness with a smooth finish. The hint of lavender transports you to a sun-drenched summer landscape, enhancing the overall experience of this luxurious treat.

Serving Recommendations

For the best tasting experience, slice the stollen to about one-centimeter thickness and savor its evolving flavors as the days go by. As the temperatures rise, the 'Eté' can be enjoyed chilled, offering a perfect respite from the heat.

Assortments for All Occasions

In addition to in-store purchases, customers can also order 'Eté' through the official online shop, which offers nationwide delivery. There are three delightful assortments available, featuring combinations of the summer stollen with teas and baked goods, making them ideal gifts for summer occasions like 'ochugen' or simply as a sweet indulgence.
