We Tried the Caviar-Topped Pudding from Maison de Purin in Kozonecho

I bought some pudding from the pudding specialty shop “Maison de Purin”, which opened along the Kozone Line〜.

The paper bag and box are already pretty impressive.

Ta-da! This time, I chose “Caviar” and “Cheese.”

“Caviar” 1,500 yen (tax included). The kind of price that might make you pause at the register lol. The little bottle that comes with it contains something called “aroma liquor,” a carefully selected drink chosen by a senior sommelier for each pudding.
The caviar is placed on top after you order, so it’s fresh〜♡

I see, I see. It’s made with caviar, white chocolate mousse, and sour cream pudding.

Following the recommended way to eat it, I tried the caviar with the white chocolate mousse.
W-w-wait, what is this?! The sweetness of the white chocolate plus the saltiness of the caviar creates an incredible pairing〜. This is food for aristocrats. I’m sure this is the kind of thing the Kano Sisters eat lol.

And then, believe it or not, you pour an old rum called “aged dark rum” over it before eating〜. Even what I had just tasted was already shocking, and then this comes in on top of it. It’s completely a flavor I’ve never experienced before. It feels like I’m blindfolded and doing one of those luxury taste tests lol.

Next up is “Cheese” 1,000 yen (tax included).

This one has manuka honey and orange sauce hidden underneath the cheese pudding〜.

It really is there. There it is〜.

Rather than pudding, it’s almost like no-bake cheesecake. It goes so well with the orange-scented manuka honey♡

This one also comes with alcohol, which you definitely shouldn’t forget. You drizzle on Drambuie, a liqueur known for its aged herbs and spices〜. On the first bite, the surprise kind of wins and you go “whoa!” but as you keep eating, you get used to it and start to feel the pairing♡

Final Thoughts

This feels like the arrival of a whole new kind of pudding. I never imagined putting caviar on pudding or pouring alcohol over it. The fact that it somehow works is impressive〜♡ The price is surprising too, but it would be perfect as a special gift.
