Rokumeikan Okoncha Baumkuchen

When sliced, beautiful layers resembling tree rings are revealed. The Rokumeikan Baumkuchen is characterized by its moist, dense texture. As you take a bite, the mellow sweetness of egg and butter slowly unravels on your palate. Baumkuchen is a confection made by repeatedly applying thin layers of batter onto a central spit and baking them one by one. The painstaking process of carefully coloring each layer creates that beautiful wood-grain pattern. The name 'Rokumeikan' comes from the glamorous social hall that symbolized the civilization and enlightenment of the Meiji era, reflecting the elegance of an age where East met West. With a gentle flavor that pairs well with both strong coffee and roasted green tea (hojicha), taking the time to savor each layer like unraveling a secret is a small luxury in itself.
