The New Extravagant Double Shortcake Debuts at Hotel New Otani

A Sweet Symphony: The New Extravagant Double Shortcake

The esteemed Hotel New Otani, known for its luxurious sweets, is set to unveil a new delight that promises to tantalize dessert lovers. The Extravagant Double Shortcake (Mango & Peach), available at its patisserie, SATSUKI, combines two seasonal fruits into a single masterpiece. Following the success of the upscale Extravagant Series, this latest creation is a summer delight you won't want to miss.

A Taste of Summer in Every Bite

This specially curated cake features a harmonious blend of domestic mango and sweet peaches from Yamanashi Prefecture. Considered as the most fleeting seasonal fruits, both mangoes and peaches have remarkably short harvest periods, making the availability of this cake somewhat unpredictable. Whether you're at the Tokyo, Makuhari, or Osaka hotels, should you encounter this sweet, indulge yourself without hesitation.

The mango, often dubbed the “fruit of the sun,” is celebrated for its luscious juice and melt-in-your-mouth texture. Paired perfectly with the Ichitosho peach, known for its superior quality—only peaches with a sugar content above 12 degrees and distinctive coloring can claim this title—this cake offers an unmatched sweetness and delightful fragrance, making it a top pick during this fruit season.

Exceptional Layers and Flavors

Adding a surprising twist is a layer of refreshing lychee, which complements the tropical flavors with a crisp aftertaste. To enhance the cake further, a topping made from fragrant elderflower kuzu elegantly brings together the two fruits' flavors while maintaining a lightness. This thoughtful combination ensures that each bite is both satisfying and refreshing, offering a delightful dessert experience.

The cake's base, crafted from genmai eggs (eggs from chickens fed organic brown rice), results in a sponge that is luxuriously moist and feather-light, reminiscent of premium castella. Finished with Kyushu Omuta's soft cream blended with Wasanbon sugar, the foundation yields a velvety platform that lets the vibrant flavors of the mango, peach, sponge, and cream meld into a “magical moment” on the palate.
