With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s recipe series! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish. Today we’ll be looking at a recipe perfect for Valentine’s Day – a super delicious chocolate gateau!
1: Ingredients
・15cm diameter round bowls
・ 200ｇ coverture chocolate
・ 150ｇ unsalted butter
・ 4 egg yolks
・ 50ｇ salt
・ 25ｇ wheat flour
・ 25ｇ Van Houten cocoa powder
・ 4 egg whites
・ 30ｇ granulated sugar
2: Mix the egg yolks and sugar well.
3: Melt the coverture chocolate and unsalted butter in a bowl over hot water. Add this to the egg yolks and sugar and mix.
4: ① Whisk the egg whites and granulated sugar until soft peaks form and add a small amount of this to the mixture made in step 3.
② Sieve the wheat flour and cocoa powder into the mixture.
③ Add the remaining egg whites into the mix and stir well.
④ Spread the mixture into a baking tin. (As the mixture will rise then sink whilst being cooked, it is ok to fill the tin up to 9/10 of the way.
5: Put the cake mix into the oven at 170℃ for 10 minutes and then turn it down to 160℃ for 20 – 25 minutes. After rising, a dip will form in the centre of the cake.
6: Make the decoration cookies for the top of the cake. (See Kaori’s Hello Kitty Halloween Cookies recipe: https://www.moshimoshi-nippon.jp/65290 )
You will need 50g of icing sugar and 9g of egg white to make the icing for the cookies. Add the egg whites bit by bit to the icing sugar whilst mixing well. After mixing, you can start decorating the cookies. (Today I’ve put the icing on using my finger).
Once the icing has hardened, melt a chocolate pen (or any kind of chocolate) and use a toothpick to draw Hello Kitty’s nose and eyes in the centre of each cookie. Fill the hole in the centre of your chocolate gateau 8/10 of the way with fresh cream and then add the cookies and some strawberries to the top to decorate.
※ A few important points*
１. The cake will still be delicious after 3 days.
２. This cake is best enjoyed at room temperature. If you store it in the fridge, I recommend leaving it out at room temperature about an hour before serving.
３. If you are going to give this to somebody as a gift, then I recommend either avoiding the fresh cream or decorating just before presenting to the recipient. Today I’ve put my cake in a gift box purchased from Seria.

With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s recipe series! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish.
Today, we’ll be making “Pumpkin & Ghost Hello Kitty Cookies.”
■Ingredients
80g unsalted butter
50g sugar
150g weak flour
Chocolate pens – red, yellow, black (bought at Daiso)
Cookie cutter (bought at Seria)
Pumpkin seeds (as many as you will need)
1-2 tablespoons pumpkin powder
2：Put the weak flour, sugar and room temperature unsalted butter into a bowl and mix.
3：Mix the pumpkin powder in the same quantity of hot water as there is powder.
4：Half the mix from step 2 and set aside half in a separate bowl. Slowly add the pumpkin mixture from step 3 into one of the bowls bit by bit whilst stirring until it turns into your preferred colour.
(Please be careful not to pour in too much at once as this will make the mixture too soft and difficult to work with.)
Cut the dough that you mixed with pumpkin powder in step 4 with a pumpkin cookie cutter and then hole out the middle to make room for the face with a round cookie cutter. (The round cookie cutter was purchased at Seria.)
Next, roll out your white dough and cut out the same round shape as before with a round cookie cutter and put it inside the pumpkin hole.
Finally, place a pumpkin seed on the stem of your dough pumpkin.
Open your 150°C preheated oven, lower to 140°C and place in the oven for 20 minutes. (Be sure not to brown the dough too much.)
6：After the cookies have cooled you can begin to draw the face. Start from the nose to ensure the face proportion lines up.Next, use the blunt end of a toothpick to draw on the eyes with your chocolate pens and the sharp end for the whiskers.
Finally, draw the ribbon. Begin by drawing the left and right part of the ribbon roundly first. Once that has dried a little, draw in the middle round part. You can draw the same face on the ghost Hello Kitties too.
Done!

Kobe is filled with famous sightseeing spots like the nostalgic Ijinkan neighborhood and port. The city is packed with fashionable shops and restaurants and is highly regarded for its selection of tasty sweets!
The port city, with over 150 years of history, has fostered a unique and diverse culinary culture.
Recently, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu began starring in a series of promotional videos for the Gastropolis Kobe project. The artist traveled to the city to partake in plenty of delicious treats, and MOSHI MOSHI NIPPON went along for the ride! Here are some of the singer’s favorite spots around town.
Kobe, known as a city where East meets West, is lined with sweets shops that are unique to the area.
The tea salon TOOTH TOOTH Dekoboko Sabo opened in 2019 in the Kobe City Museum and offers a menu that mixes Western food and sweets with tea and ingredients from traditional Japanese cuisine. Kyary ordered the Dekoboko Sabo Afternoon Tea Set, a collection of western sweets blended with the essence of traditional Japanese flavors. Guests are invited to enjoy their tea and sweets in a one-of-a-kind space filled with Meiji period flare and retro Western furniture. Those interested will need to make a reservation, so be sure to remember the next time you’re in Kobe.
TOOTH TOOTH Decoboco Sabo
Address: 24 Kyomachi, Chuo Ward, Kobe (Inside the Kobe City Museum)
Hours: 9:30-17:30 (Last Order at 16:30)
Closed Mondays
Official Site: https://toothtooth.com/restaurant/decoboco-sabo
The next stop was Kobe Nankin-machi, one of the three major Chinatowns in Japan. Kobe MILK is known nationwide for its Apricot Pudding, which is made with local ingredients. The raw apricot pudding is mixed with milk brought from the foot of Mt. Rokko and other ingredients from Hyogo Prefecture. Of course, Kyary ordered some, and was amazed by its fluffy texture. You can only enjoy it in Kobe–also, the shop sells other puddings mixed with seasonal fruits, so don’t miss those either!
Kobe MILK
Address: Shin-Motomachi Building 1F (1 Motomachi-dori, Chuo-ku, Kobe)
Hours: Weekdays 9:30-19:00 / Weekends 9:30-19:30
Official Site: https://kobe-milk.com
For Kyary’s final stop, the singer visited the Moore House, a cafe located in a building with over 100 years of history. Guests are surrounded by greenery, and the Western-style building is incredibly elegant. The Strawberry Mille-feuille Kyary ordered was created by an expert patissier and based on the strawberry mille-feuille recipe from the legendary French restaurant Maxim’s de Paris in Ginza. A generous amount of custard cream complements the crispy pie crust and enhances the sweetness of the fresh strawberries. We’d recommend it with a glass of champagne–if you’re of age.
Kitano Ijin-kan Moore House
Address: 2-9-3 Kitanocho, Chuo-ku, Kobe
Hours: 11:00-17:00
Closed Tuesdays
Official Site: https://www.kitanomoore.com/cafe/
The streets of Kobe are packed with sweets that you can only enjoy if you visit. Why not come experience these incredible spots like Kyary did?
