“THE Nama Tiramisu” is made using mascarpone from Hidaka, Hokkaido, along with carefully selected cream and fresh milk. The dessert is crafted to be soft and smooth, creating a melt-in-your-mouth, fresh texture. Instead of sponge cake, it features biscuit (biscuit cuillère), the authentic base typically used in traditional tiramisu. The biscuit is generously soaked in a rich espresso-based coffee syrup. On top of the creamy tiramisu, caramel-coated cashew nuts are added for texture and flavor. Just before serving, cocoa powder is sifted over the top, giving it a refined, authentic presentation.
Upon tasting, the dessert offers an authentic flavor profile where sweetness blends harmoniously with the bitterness of espresso. The carefully crafted fresh texture is incredibly soft and almost melts in the mouth. The caramel-coated cashew nuts provide a pleasant crunch, adding a delightful contrast in texture. Though the portion is modest in size, each bite feels precious—leaving you wanting just a little more.
Please note that the product will not be available at the Global Flagship Store in Harajuku or the Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai store. Takeout is not available. Prices may vary by location. Sales are expected to end once the limited quantity has been sold.
