Nenkichi “Praline”
A Western-style sweet with an exquisite balance of almonds, chocolate, and apricot jam.
A signature sweet from Nenkichi, a long-established Japanese and Western confectionery shop that has been operating in Chuo Ward, Niigata City since 1898. It features three layers of butter sponge cake, lavishly topped with caramelized almonds and coated in chocolate. Sweet-tart apricot jam is layered between the sponge cake, creating an exquisite balance of nutty almonds, sweet chocolate, and refreshing acidity.
Great care is also taken with the ingredients, with 100% fresh California almonds used. Only the amount needed for the day is ground, creating a fresh and fragrant praline. It is delicious as is, but lightly warming it in the oven enhances its nuttiness even more. In addition to the regular size, which is Approx. 23 cm long, a half-size version is also available, making it an easy choice for gifts.
