Ah…
Ah…

Valentine's Day sweets "Venus brüstchen " that appeared in the Viennese confectionery store "Neues". In Japanese, "Venus's nipples" ... It's a sweet with a name that makes you feel excited.

It looks completely "that". What's more, the material that introduces the product has a sentence that says, "If you gently put your teeth on the smooth white skin like pottery (abbreviated below)", it is a product that can arouse an indescribable delusion.

Well, I 'm really worried . The eating editorial department went to Neues and got "Venus's nipples"!

I have a "Venus nipple" in my hand!
I have a "Venus nipple" in my hand!

When I opened the bag, a transparent box containing two sweets appeared. Compact enough to fit in the palm of your hand. The confectionery itself is slightly larger than ordinary chocolate grains, and has a size that makes it possible to eat even a bite.

At first, I (young lady) imagined a dynamic like "boobs pudding" (there are all over the country), but "Venus nipples" were very "elegant nipples" .

On the surface of the hemispherical "white skin" that is smooth and glossy, gold powder shimmers, like foundation-applied skin. Pink protrusions stand on the top.

I hope it's one
I hope it's one

If you put two side by side ...
If you put two side by side ...

It's exciting to touch and bite, but ... let's break it and look inside.

Underneath the white chocolate, there seems to be a maroon paste wrapped in a translucent layer. It looks like a Japanese sweet with white chocolate wrapped in red bean paste ...! Am I the only one?

Isn't it like a steamed bun?

When I try to eat it, the rich scent of rum echoes in my mouth! After the sweetness of white chocolate and the rich aroma of rum, the gentle texture of the paste comes. It might be like eating white chocolate with rum raisin flavored ganache. It has a sexy taste.

It contains soft marron paste and marzipan. Marzipan is a mixture of almonds and sugar. Many people may think of a doll on top of a cake, but they often use it as a material for confectionery, such as making it soft and kneading it into the dough of the cake. The flavor and richness of marzipan adds depth to the taste.

Even in Austria, the birthplace of Venus brüstchen, it is standard to add marzipan and marron paste (cream). On the other hand, there are also arrangements such as adding ganash and chestnuts themselves. Once you're there, it's fun to eat around the various Venus brüstchens while visiting the traces of Mozart.

Neues brüstchen was a high-quality adult dessert with an elegant texture, mellow rum scent, and the richness of marzipan. It may take some courage to get your hands on it, but it's a limited edition chocolate that appears only during Valentine's Day every year. Enjoy it slowly.

The price is 1,200 yen (tax included) for 2 pieces. It will be on sale at Neues stores, online shops (until February 15th), and Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi "Sweets Collection" (February 3rd to February 15th). Maybe I'm more nervous when I give it than when I buy it?
