The Westin Tokyo, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary since opening, is introducing 11 types of Christmas cakes that express a "winter forest" with a variety of flavors and expressions. Reservations will be accepted from November 1st to December 13th.
The Westin Tokyo's 2019 Christmas cakes are themed around "Winter Forest," with a lineup of 11 types to brighten up Christmas Eve.
"MA.RU.TA 2019 Chocolate Cake" (¥42,000)
The "MA.RU.TA 2019 Chocolate Cake" (¥42,000), with its striking image of stacked logs, is a special item available in limited quantities of just five. Each cake is made of 15 brownies, five of which are wrapped in three light creams—pistachio, chocolate, and praline—and coated in chocolate to resemble a log. Beneath the log is a lightly sweet Sachertorte cake made with 100% cocoa bitter chocolate and sandwiched with apricot jam, and the outside is decorated with chocolate in the shape of a wooden box, making it a luxurious cake that allows you to enjoy a variety of flavors in one cake.
"KI.RI.KA.BU Foret Noir" (¥12,000)
The "KI.RI.KA.BU Foret Noir" (¥12,000) is decorated with chocolate spritzed onto the surface, resembling a stump in the forest. This 10-layer Follette Noir is made up of alternating layers of chocolate cream with griotte cherries, white bavarois, and chocolate sponge cake soaked in plenty of kirsch, and has a sophisticated taste with a strong liqueur aroma. Only 10 units are available.
"KI.RI.KA.BU Chocolate Tarte" (¥15,000)
"KI.RI.KA.BU Chocolate Tarte" (¥15,000) is a chocolate tart made with a moist bisky chocolate crust and filled with a rich raspberry-flavored ganache. Only 10 units are available. The tree rings are decorated with white chocolate and the surface is decorated with chocolate cream, creating a beautiful tree stump. Royaltine and sable chocolate are added to add texture, making this a dish that allows you to enjoy the rich taste of chocolate as well as the texture.

"Paris-Brest Praline Cream" (5,300 yen)
And this year's featured cake is the "Paris-Brest Praline Cream" (5,300 yen), reminiscent of a Christmas wreath. Rich hazelnut praline cream, rich almond-scented custard cream, and mini eclairs are sandwiched between ring-shaped choux pastry. This is a dish that offers an incredibly rich flavor.
The popular shortcakes available every year include the "Strawberry Shortcake" (5,100 yen) and the "Santa Shortcake" (5,300 yen), which is decorated with Santa and snowmen for a cute and gorgeous look. Both are sandwiched with cream containing strawberry puree and made with pure fresh cream for a refined taste.
The cheesecake "Montagne Neige" (5,300 yen), inspired by pure white snowy mountains, is a refreshing double cheesecake made with cream cheese soufflé topped with fromage blanc cream. Its adorable appearance is also notable, with whipped cream, yogurt, and cream resembling falling snow, decorated with snow monster white chocolate.
Other items available include Panettone (2,800 yen), a sweet bread originating from Italy that's popular at the Westin Deli, and Bakery Stollen (3,600 yen), a traditional German Christmas treat.
