Fall appetite season is officially here!
The delicious chestnut season has arrived～ヽ(^o^)丿
So we compared the Mont Blanc cakes from the cake shops inside Nishinomiya Hankyu!
You can’t see what’s inside a Mont Blanc, so don’t you get curious? ＼(^o^)／We’re focusing only on the ones where you can’t tell what’s inside
We’ll show them together with their cross sections!!!

Mont Blanc Cakes from the Cake Shops on the 1st Floor of Nishinomiya Hankyu
Henri Charpentier
Mont Blanc ￥615 (tax included)
You can tell just by looking how chestnutty it is, with Mont Blanc cream carefully piped round and round in fine strands!(^^)!
It looks beautiful too (#^.^#)
Here’s the cross section (*^^)v
There’s plenty of Mont Blanc cream inside too, and it goes perfectly with the whipped cream!
At the very bottom was a cookie full of buttery flavor, which really brought out the cream ＼(^o^)／

Gokan
Domestic Japanese Chestnut Mont Blanc ￥594 (tax included)
We’re curious about what’s inside the aluminum cup!
Here’s the cross section (*^^)v
Inside the aluminum cup, there was a round little pie crust that added a crisp texture(^^)
There was plenty of sponge cake and whipped cream too, but the Mont Blanc cream had a gentle sweetness, letting the chestnut flavor come through clearly!

Jouvencelle
Japanese Chestnut Mont Blanc ￥648 (tax included)
The way it comes in a little basket is cute (#^.^#)
Here’s the cross section (*^^)vIt fell apart a little (・_・;)
There were chestnuts simmered with their inner skins tucked inside the cream too, and that chestnutty feel mixed nicely with the cream(*^^)v
Layers of crisp pie crust, sponge cake, and more made the textures fun too!

Patisserie Kanon
Mont Blanc ￥520 (tax included)
It comes in a cute cup (#^.^#)
Here’s the cross section ヽ(^o^)丿
Marron cream sits on top of a fluffy roll cake, giving it a somewhat nostalgic feel!(^^)!

Gramercy New York
Japanese Chestnut Mont Blanc ￥691
So much Mont Blanc cream～＼(^o^)／
Here’s the cross section… though it ended up a mess (・_・;)
I thought it would be packed with cream all the way through, but when I put the knife in, I felt something crunchy, and this is what happened ^^;
The crunchy thing turned out to be meringue thinly coated in chocolate!
A memorable Mont Blanc with complex textures and a mix of different flavors ヽ(^o^)丿
