Sakura Season has arrived in London a bit early this year. Tombo Japanese Café – known for their Sanrio collaboration and cutest dessert creations – just introduced their Sakura Season Specials on their Instagram.
They introduced a very special Japanese dessert, called ‘Japanese Mont Blanc’ last November. ‘Mont Blanc’ is a super popular dessert in Japan (and just as Instagrammable). It is cream and chestnut purée which they press through a machine with small holes that makes it a spaghetti-like swirl that they use to garnish ice cream or cake.
Now, that Cherry Blossom Season is on the corner, they added a Sakura flavour to their existing flavours: matcha and purple potato.
The Sakura Season Specials consist of Sakura Mont Blanc Sundae, Sakura Matcha Latte, Sakura Mochi, and Sakura Soft Serve in a Cone.

Sakura Mont Blanc Sundae is a pretty-in-pink dessert (almost) too pretty to eat. It’s matcha or Sakura soft serve (your choice) lying on a crispy rice cereal bed, served with freshly pressed Sakura chestnut purée, topped with tricolour mochi on a skewer.

Sakura Matcha Latte is a picturesque pink and green ice latte, served with pink, white and green mochi on a skewer. Not too sweet, just perfect.
Sakura mochi is a pretty pink sweet rice cake, filled with red bean paste, wrapped in a pickled cherry blossom leaf.
Sakura Soft Serve is a perfect dessert on the go between two museums.
Which dessert will you try first?
