::(shopping for) Valentine's Day 2015::

Hello everyone!! How was your Valentine's day?

Valentine's day is a big chocolate day here in Japan.

Chocolate stores are full of girls trying to get the best chocolate gift for someone they care for.

Last Wednesday was a day off and had my eyelash extension done in the morning.

After that, I wanted to try their new Brooklyn D&D doughnut at Mister Donut

Strawberry one that I had was really good! 

Try it if you have a chance to drop by one of their shops.

I went home to change myself into a casual kimono look

and headed to Omotesando for Valentine's day shopping.

My favorite chocolatier, Jean-Paul Hevin :)

Their shop at Omotesando hills was so busy on that day, 

and girls were making a long line.

It took me a half hour before I stepped into the store!

Valentine's day special boxes :)

I randomly chose milk chocolates from the show case

cause my partner doesn't like ones that are dark and bitter.

My favorites are their macarons!!

Since he's not a big fan of them, I bought some for myself.

Limited packaging for VD.

Kinda looks like chrome hearts.... No?

Macaroooooons for me :)

It's surprising that I could leave them untouched until the VD.

I got something else for people at work too.

VD here in Japan is a good reason for girls to spoil themselves :P

Thanks for reading!

::Happy Valentine's Day::

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!

Last night, we had a little Valentine party at home.

I got a new really really easy recipe of Gateau Chocolat last week,

and this is sooooo amazing!

Just put all the ingredients except for chocolate blocks in a food processor

and run it for 20-30 seconds.

Pour it into a pan and press "cake" menu of my induction heater.

After about...30 mins, its ready to serve!

Melted chocolate on top is sooooo good :)

Today, I brought some chocolate boxes for my bosses and co-worker.

Chocolate coated almonds and lemon peels inside those green boxes.

These are from François Doucet

Chocolate balls with Japanese motif for my co-worker.

Hope you all have a Happy Valentine's Day!

Thanks for reading

::super candy::

a friend of mine came back from Hawaii and got me these tasty super candies :)

Acai and Pomegranate chocolate from Brookside.

the day before i saw my friend, i was talking about these at office.

it was so surprising that she brought this back for me.

acai, blueberry, pomegranate concentrate is coated by dark chocolate :D

these are definitely good with coffee, tea and... maybe wine??

i highly recommend these for afternoon tea time :)
