Enjoy a Summer of Matcha Delights with Saint Marc Cafe's Collaboration
This summer, Saint Marc Cafe is thrilled to introduce a range of delightful desserts featuring the rich tastes of Uji matcha in collaboration with Gion Tsujiri. Beginning June 20, customers can indulge in these limited-edition offerings that celebrate the flavors of one of Japan’s most revered green teas.
For years, the collaboration with Gion Tsujiri, a well-known Uji tea shop, has been a summer highlight. This year, however, the menu has expanded to include not just the beloved Premium Chocolate Croissant, but also two new matcha-inspired creations: the Matcha Smoothie and Matcha Parfait, providing an all-matcha experience that is sure to delight fans of this Japanese specialty.
Premium Chocolate Croissant - Uji Matcha
The Premium Chocolate Croissant features a special dough infused with Uji matcha from Gion Tsujiri. The croissant enwraps rich matcha chocolate and creamy matcha filling, creating a moist and flavorful bite with the aromatic essence of Uji matcha in each chew. The flaky, crispy contrast of the croissant complements the decadence of the matcha chocolate, and a sprinkle of matcha on top enhances its appeal. Additionally, the crunchy texture of the decorative 'bubu-arare' (rice crackers) adds an enjoyable bite to this exquisite pastry.
Matcha Smoothie
For those looking to enjoy matcha in a drinkable form, the Matcha Smoothie offers an indulgent experience with its generous helpings of Gion Tsujiri's aromatic Uji matcha. Merging milk and fresh matcha, the smoothie boasts a rich matcha sauce made in-house that elegantly coats the glass before the smoothie is poured in. Topped with a swirl of soft-serve ice cream and drizzled with more matcha sauce, the vibrant green gradient is visually appealing, making it as delightful to the eyes as it is to the palate.
Matcha Parfait
The Matcha Parfait showcases the essence of Japanese flavors, incorporating abundant amounts of Uji matcha to create a harmonious dessert. Homemade Uji matcha jelly is layered at both the bottom and top of the glass, complemented by a sumptuous house-made matcha sauce that enhances the deep flavors of matcha. Topped with crunchy cornflakes, silky soft-serve, subtly sweet red beans, and chewy dango (sweet rice dumplings), this parfait offers a colorful, textural experience, delivering a variety of flavors in every bite.
With these delightful new offerings, this year’s exclusive collaboration with Gion Tsujiri elevates the matcha experience, encouraging everyone to savor the essence of Uji matcha. Available from June 20 to July 24, these treats promise a refreshing summer indulgence that is not to be missed. Be sure to check availability, as offerings may vary by location and could be subject to an early stop in sales.
