This product is a Christmas cake in the shape of a "house". The base of the house is represented by a plain sponge cake sandwiched with strawberries and cream, and the roof is represented by chocolate bar.

You can decorate a door made of cookies, a Christmas tree made of marzipan, a chocolate snowman, a chimney with "smoke" on the roof, and Santa carrying a bag right next to it. The design is full of Christmas "excitement". The size is 15 x 14 x 13 cm in height and is for about 5 to 6 people.

It also comes with a tree and a snowman that you can decorate yourself.

That's why I also tried the Christmas cake full of dreams at the En-eating editorial department!

For convenience, I cut it for one person

The fluffy sponge with a slight scent of eggs and the cream sandwiched between them have a modest sweetness, and are soft and light. The fresh sweetness and sourness of the cut strawberries that are embedded all around are a moderate accent.

By the way, it seems that this strawberry becomes a "pillar" and supports the cake house. Take off your hat with a carefully calculated design! When I made a candy house in the eating editorial department before, I feel even more respect because I experienced the unexpected happening that the base can not bear the weight of the roof due to lack of calculation power. .. Kotaro-kun, it looks promising in the future!

I'm thinking about it properly ...

And personally, I was happy that the chocolate bar wasn't too sweet. It has a slightly bitter cocoa flavor and is well balanced with the mildly sweet sponge cake. In addition, it is difficult to cut this chocolate bar roof, so it seems that you can peel it off and eat it. It's a big deal, so it's okay to eat the whole cake like a dream.

Grip it to your heart's content!
