Charlotte aux Marron

It has been a month since I had forth Home Cafe at my place!!

I forgot to post this..Time flies so fast.

On that day,I made “Charlotte aux Marron”,because I really missed Japanese autumn..

I like here Manila,I like summer,but sometimes I miss Japan,especially spring and autumn.

So it was the time I missed Japanese autumn.

I couldn't find Japanese chestnuts in here,so I used processed USDA chestnuts which I bought from S&R.It worked better than I had expected:)

About chestnuts cream,I could get in here,but one of my friends also gave me the other chestnuts cream that I couldn't get in here Manila,so I used both.

Very simple table coordinate:)

White ,silver and flowers!!

I decorated the plate a bit:)

It was what wanted to do. Like a dessert served at a restaurant:)

I brushed some cream and jam on the plate and some dried fruits and a chestnut on them.

This was nice:) I like this.

All the ingredients were matched in good ways!

I thought I was a genius! ha.

Inside was chestnuts mousse.

Although the size was quite huge,we could eat all at once.

It was so tasty!

We also enjoyed a Japanese traditional sweets “Konpeito”.

This is made by sugar but it had taken a time for making this.

It needs professional skills. Handmade sugar crafts!! Amaging,isn't is?

My sister gave me as a souvenir of Kyoto. It was also baked chestnuts taste:)

I found a chestnuts shop in the mall:)

I couldn't help buying these..because I am a chestnuts lover!!

It was not bad,but actually the size was a bit smaller than those I buy in Japan.

but still it was OK,because they are chestnuts:)

I also made“Marron Parfait” by using the rest of the chestnuts cream of Charlotte aux Marron.

I made three,so gave them to my friends as souvenirs for their husbands:)

How kind I am!! haha. Just a kidding!

I am happy just everyone enjoyed my sweets and had a wonderful time♡

Looking forward to having a next one:)

See you!
