If you’re visiting Tokyo’s Roppongi district, a similar sakura jelly offering can be purchased at the Sun Fruits high-end fruit store, and this one comes in a gorgeous dish shaped like a delicate cherry blossom petal. The ¥540 retail price includes the beautiful pink sakura dish to take home.

Called the “Sakura Bavarois,” this palm-sized sweet contains a salted cherry blossom encased in a domed jelly. Sitting atop a serving of smooth, creamy bavarois, the sakura jelly is surrounded by roughly sliced pink jelly pieces which represent the fallen cherry blossom petals.

The jelly casing creates a stunning visual effect that makes the petal inside seem much larger than it really is. The mix of tart cherry blossom flavors combines well with the creamy bavarois, creating a delicious and incredibly memorable seasonal dessert.

Like many of the other sweet sakura offerings on sale this spring, these cherry blossom jellies are only available for a limited time so be sure to pick one up as soon as you can. Whether you’re enjoying them at home or under the trees during the hanami flower-viewing season, these sweet sakura treats will definitely be a delight to remember, even after the beautiful pink petals have fallen from the trees!
