SPRING-themed Japanese desserts have been launched by a premium matcha brand.
Presenting new offerings alongside customer favourites, Matcha Eight has unveiled its seasonal sakura menu.
This year’s highlight is the Hanami Platter that consists of sakura-themed ice-cream, mochi, jelly, tea and traditional warabi mochi.
This is available as a sharing and single platter, priced at RM68+ and RM48+ respectively.
Crafted in partnership with master chef Takuji Takahashi, this exclusive menu offers authentic tastes.
The Sakura Ice-Cream and Sakura Fizzy have made a return with a blend of spring blossom leaves.
“Sakura season holds a special place in our hearts. It is a time to appreciate nature’s ephemeral beauty and create lasting memories,” said Matcha Eight founder Miho Kaneko.
“Through this menu, we want to bring the magic of spring to Malaysia, evoking the charm of Japanese hanami and the nostalgia of springtime memories.”
What sets Matcha Eight apart is its use of natural ingredients, with zero artificial additives, preservatives, flavourings and stabilisers.
Each dish is made with real spring blossom flowers sourced from Kochi prefecture, Japan.
Besides the seasonal platter, Matcha Eight has also introduced the Hanami Bites Set (RM22++), which features a combo of one drink and one dessert of choice.
Selections vary slightly depending on the outlet.
The new menu is available in stores for a limited time.
Matcha Eight’s stores are located in The Exchange TRX (010-205 8732) and LaLaport Bukit Bintang City Centre (010-200 8732).
