Mother’s Day was Sunday, May 8th 2011 in Japan. This is a beautiful Mother’s Day Cake from HENRI CHARPENTIER.
I introduced almost the same cake the year before last. They changed the heart-shaped macarons which looks so lovely.
The coconut dough with vanilla mousse and strawberry compote is just great.

The Fruit Parlor & Restaurant of Sembikiya at Nihonbashi is located at 2nd floor of the Nihonbashi Mitsui Tower building.

We had a special parfait of Sembikiya with a cup of tea.
There were a lot of kinds of fresh and fragrant fruits such as a slice of strawberry, banana, kiwi, orange, pineapple, watermelon and melon with fresh cream that were decorated in a top of parfait glass.
Especially, the melon gave us a very rich aroma.

Also, strawberry sauce and mango sauce were beautifully layered with fresh cream and ice cream at the bottom of the parfait glass.
The fruits sauces with the pulp were not oversweetened, and they were perfectly mixed with fresh cream and ice cream.
We were able to enjoy the richly-flavored fresh fruits in season.
