Kobe Cake Festa tasting session
Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a tasting session and blogger face-to-face meeting at Genius Cafe to try out some cakes for the upcoming Kobe Sweets Festa 2009 from the 1st to 6th of May 2009 on the 8th and 9th floors of Daimaru Motomachi.

Mmm, doughtnuts! The theme for this year is doughnuts; the usual association is with cheap efforts from Mister Donuts or the enormous queues for Krispy Kremes, so here they are trying something different by asking cake shops to come up with their own high-end doughnuts. In the picture, the nearest one was Baumkuchen, next was a not overpoweringly sugared apple honey, then mocha chocolate, and strawberry.
To spread the link love, at the event I sat beside the King of Noodles and Bu-ko Hankyu Railway virtual stationmaster.
All my photos from the event may be found here:


They look scrumptious! (゚д゚)ウ-(゚Д゚)マー(゚A゚)イ-…ヽ(゚∀゚)ノ…ゾォォォォォ!!!!
Looks like you won’t be needing a sugar fix for while after all those donuts! BTW, Is that you being interviewed in the last picture on the Kobe Sweets photo gallery?
Yeah, I’m pretty much ridiculously jealous. 😀
Taking place across the street from Sannomia? Is that where Daimaru is in Kobe?
Any leftovers I can mooch? Ha ha. They look great.
I am weak in English.
I use the translation page of Yahoo now.
You were interviewed for us the other day.
Thank you.
I wrote you in my blog.
I inform it of it.
If there is a problem, please inform it.
