This cake has a super interesting name... and it lives up to it both in looks and taste in my opinion! Presenting the Tigresse!! It even has the orange stripes on top, like a tiger's forehead.
This is yet another amazing product by Gateau Festa Harada. I previously posted on their rusk products and their leaf pie.
And the cake itself looked very tigressy indeed... with its chocolate-feckled and orangey-brown appearance.
It's basically a very moist and chocolatey cake. The surface of the chocolate was actually picture-perfect smooth when we bought it. Pardon the blotch... it was a casualty of transit as this was flown in from Osaka.
Definitely worthy of the title "Tigresse" indeed... a fierce cake that is a "King" in its own right!

Among the list of premium ingredients are: fresh cream, liquor (type not stated), almond poudre (or powder), and butter.
As mentioned, the cake was very moist and smooth, with a very fragrant and buttery flavour. The chocolate was also very rich and smooth. You can also feel the distinct warm of the liquor as it slides down your throat.
It was also baked until there was a mild crust along the rim of the cake, seen in the slightly browned parts in the image. The secret? It's in the almond powder.
