Patissier’s Homemade Deserts


This white pudding is made using eggs with a pale yolk. The sauce is made from aronia, a Nordic berry harvested at Rusutsu Farm. This healthy fruit is full of anthocyanin, which is believed to be good for the eyes. We recommend eating the pudding made of Hokkaido ingredients from the top first, and then mixing it with the aronia sauce. It is a after dinner desert, but please be careful after as the aronia fruit may get stuck in your teeth.

 


This authentic Italian tiramisu features espresso flavoured sponge, mascarpone cheese and custard cream.

 


This tart is made with locally sourced apples from Sobetsu. The sweet apple flavour is perfectly complimented by soft serve ice cream.
