Congratulations on the "checkered pattern"! New Year's cake "Bonane"

"Bonane" means "Happy New Year" in French. A two-color pound cake containing almonds and cocoa is soaked with chestnut-flavored syrup mixed with rum and sandwiched with chocolate cream. It is finished in the ancient Japanese celebration crest "checkered pattern".

In addition, the top surface is topped with astringent chestnut kanro-ni from Kumamoto prefecture, and a bittersweet caramel is added.
