[Tokyo - Tokyo Station] Cacao Sampaka KAKAOSAMPAKA (カカオ サンパカ) Chocolatier Kitte Shopping Mall - Marunouchi

After a day of shopping and sightseeing, stopping by Kitte Shopping Mall for a treat is definitely necessary. We went to Cacao Sampaka (カカオ サンパカ), a chocolatier that specializes in delicate treats.

Cacao Sampaka is pretty posh and most items are pretty expensive, given that it is in the upscale Marunouchi neighborhood.

It serves a cafe food and drink menu, pastries, and other cold treats. Cacao Sampaka's claim to fame is its chocolate, so you have to make sure you save room for some, you can also have it in liquid form. It is also quite well-known for its drinking chocolate and thick hot chocolates.

We got the set menu, which included one chocolate soda with raspberry sorbet and one chocolate, with gold leaf.

The chocolate soda was super unique, in my opinion. It is clear, so you are expecting not much flavor, but what you get is a very rich chocolate flavor. As the sorbet melts, the chocolate flavor is married with the subtle raspberry flavor.

When you bite into the chocolate, you know that they mean business. It is definitely made of high-quality ingredients and you understand why Cacao Sampaka is the chocolate supplier to the Spanish royal family.

I highly recommend the chocolate soda for a very unique treat.

[Skincare Review] Head-to-Head Test: Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair vs. La Mer The Concentrate

 As promised, here is my blog comparing the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair vs. the La Mer The Concentrate. FTC disclaimer: I was sent both of these items for free in exchange for my full and honest review. I tried to be as scientific as humanly possible. I had a blinded reviewer (my mom) who was actually unaware I was even doing a skincare test, so her opinion is completely blinded and she tried really hard to give a full and honest review of differences she noticed. I did this for 2 weeks. In the 14 days before the test, I was testing out the Estee Lauder ANP product in exchange for my review. I had enough product left (and actually received a second sample to test). My nighttime skincare routine was the same as usual. 1) DHC Cleansing Oil - Buy from YesStyle | Buy from Amazon 2) Micellar Water (for eye makeup) 3) Rosette Cleansing Paste Sea Clay Smooth - Buy From YesStyle  | Buy from Amazon I used my PMD Clean (from CAUSEBOX) to wash my face.
