Discover the Sweet Symphony: Cocos' Strawberry and Chocolate Fair
From January 27, Cocos Japan is set to treat dessert lovers with its much-anticipated
Strawberry and Chocolate Fair. This exciting event will feature a lineup of five delightful desserts that embody the harmonious blend of sweet-tart strawberries and rich chocolate. Each creation promises to deliver a blissful experience for anyone with a sweet tooth.
Signature Dessert Highlights
One of the stars of the fair is the
Strawberry and Whole Chocolate Pudding Parfait (1,290 yen, tax included), an impressive delight visually and taste-wise. This massive parfait is crowned with a rich chocolate pudding, surrounded by the fresh tartness of strawberries that complements the deep sweetness of the chocolate. Inside, layers of whipped cream, strawberry sorbet, chocolate flakes, and sponge cake create a luxurious taste experience. This chocolate and strawberry powerhouse is best enjoyed with the seasonal
Lemon-Scented Strawberry Rooibos Tea, enhancing the flavors with its refreshing lemon and strawberry notes.
Next on the list is the
Strawberry and Chocolate Crepe Pie (650 yen, tax included). This dessert features a crispy pie packed with chocolate pudding and whipped cream, topped with fresh strawberries and served with a drizzle of rich hot chocolate sauce. For an exciting flavor twist, it pairs beautifully with
Keemun, a tea known for its smoky aroma and smooth taste.
For those who prefer a lighter treat, the
Fluffy Strawberry and Chocolate Shortcake (590 yen, tax included) is a must-try. This delightful creation consists of bite-sized sponge cake topped with airy whipped cream, chocolate sauce, crispy chocolate flakes, and fresh strawberries, making it an ideal choice for dessert after a meal. Pair it with a fragrant
Darjeeling tea for a touch of sophistication.
Cocos also caters to smaller appetites with the
Mini Strawberry and Chocolate Parfait (490 yen, tax included). This charming mini parfait is layered with strawberry sorbet, Belgian chocolate ice cream, and smooth chocolate pudding, garnished with fresh strawberries, ensuring every bite is a concentrated burst of flavor. It’s delightful alongside
Earl Grey, whose citrus notes complement chocolate perfectly.
Lastly, indulge in the
Strawberry Sorbet and Chocolate Ice Cream (330 yen, tax included). This simpler yet satisfying offering combines refreshing strawberry sorbet with rich Belgian chocolate ice cream, served with whipped cream and fresh strawberries, making it a delightful end to any meal. Savor it with
Uva, a tea known for its full-bodied flavor, to elevate the tasting experience.
