I LOVE that little decadent thing...even though it's made with tofu, it's still pretty darn good. Anyways, thanks for letting me know what's kuromitsu. I wouldn't have known. I'll be reading your blog about it! :) Jason: You got to try the miso choco cake! I LOVE that little decadent thing…even though it’s made with tofu, it’s still pretty darn good.

I don't think I've seen anything like that attempted in Japan. It seems like it could work... salty-sweet is the new old thing, after all. I live in the land of salt-covered chocolate caramels. Kuromitsu (black sugar sauce) is made from kokutou, which is made differently than brown sugar but still has a molasses-like quality that you'd find in the American version. Kutomitsu sometimes features added honey. I love that flavor. It'll make a small appearance on my blog tomorrow, too.

Chocolate molten cake, fleur de sel and olive oil?! It sounds YUMMY! Reminds me in an odd way of olive oil gelato I've had a couple of months ago. Kim: Wow.

It was quite an experience just looking at it. I envy you. We go to Japanese restaurants but I never see that many great desserts on a single place. I bookmark the address for my next trip to New York. Talking about the Mini Miso Choco Cake, it must be heavenly. A Spanish restaurant in my neighborhood serves something similar. It is a chocolate molten cake with fleur de sel and olive oil. My husband said one time after eating one that he could die at that moment and be happy. He was right. Pure pleasure! Wow!

It calls for some research. But I would like to know, do you know the name of the "white sauce?" Robyn: Thanks! :)

I don't know filling my stomach though.... <strong>Alexa:</strong> Those are edible works of art! You'll never realize that their made of tofu or soy milk (unless you're eating the tofu itself), since it tastes <em>soo</em> good. chin: It’s definitely gorgeous lighting.
