We visited “Hotel Chocolat,” which opened at LaLaport Koshien on September 10!(^^)!
This article is brought to you by “ALBOBBY,” a salon that supports Nishitsu.
This is a shop we’d been eagerly waiting for since June, wondering when it would finally open!
Hotel Chocolat is apparently a cacao brand with more than 125 shops across the UK(^_^)/
I’m excited to try chocolate packed with cacao!!
The Selection Box from “Hotel Chocolat”
Everything ¥2,500 (tax included)
This box brings together popular chocolates from every chocolate category!
It’s apparently a popular item at the shop and often sells out(*^◯^*)
Here’s what’s inside↓
Raspberry Panna Cotta…the sweet-tart flavor of the raspberry and the white chocolate brought out the best in each other😊
Dizzy Praline 70%…one of the shop’s signature chocolates made with 70% cacao dark chocolate!(^^)! It’s dark chocolate, but it still has sweetness and a nice smooth taste!
Cherry Deluxe...a cherry soaked in alcohol was wrapped in two layers of chocolate! A chocolate for grown-ups(^_^)/
Pistachio…pistachio within a caramel flavor! The smoothness gives the flavor real depth😍
Here are our thoughts on the other chocolates↓
Caesar…the mousse-like praline has a texture unlike anything I’ve had before
Champagne…you can really taste the champagne
Cashew Nut…the saltiness really brought out the chocolate flavor(^_^)/
Chocolate Mousse…the chocolate experience, a classic flavor!
Chocolate Macaron…a macaron made of chocolate, recommended for chocolate lovers!
Eton Mess...it feels just like eating strawberry shortcake☺
Florentine Isabella…a complex but totally convincing flavor with caramelized almonds
Billionaire’s Shortbread…a combination of crunchy cookie and chocolate(^^) The texture is really nice
As you’d expect from an assortment of popular items, it was very satisfying!(^^)!
Most of the chocolates inside the gift box are also sold in packs of 6 for ¥850 (tax included)!
And if you buy 3 packs, it’s ¥2,000 (tax included), which feels like a great deal(^_^)/
You could eat so many of them! They were lined up across the entire wall, and it was dreamy!
Each one has a good amount of volume, so it’s nice that you can really savor them(#^.^#)

Inside the shop, there’s a spacious area in the center, and toward the back there’s also an eat-in space where you can enjoy chocolat drinks, soft serve ice cream, coffee, iced tea, and moreヽ(^o^)丿
There are 9 types of chocolat drinks, and you can choose hot or iced! I want to try one(#^.^#)
The shop also had hand cream, body lotion, and other items made with cacao(^_^)/
