Limited Edition Chocolates from "Salon du Chocolat Paris" Award Winners Available

The exhibition 'Chocolate, Chocolate.' brings together chocolatiers, artists of flavor, and photographers, artists of imagery. These chocolatiers and photographers, who mutually respect and inspire each other as friendly rivals, have collaborated, dividing their bases into Kanto and Kansai. They present their thoughts, perspectives, and expressions through photographs, all centered on the theme of 'chocolate.'

Representing the East are Hiroyuki Tsujiguchi, owner-chef of "Le Chocolat de H" at Shibuya Hikarie ShinQs, and Hiroshi Ishikawa, a photographer whose work breathes new life into Tsujiguchi's creations, igniting viewers' desires.

On the Western front is Susumu Koyama, owner-chef of "Patissier es Koyama" in Sanda City, Hyogo Prefecture. Last year, he opened "Rozilla," a chocolatier designed to create the 'optimal environment for chocolate.'RozillaThe photography for Koyama's creations is handled by Naoto Marumaru, an indispensable presence. Marumaru was the first Japanese photographer to be featured on the cover of the official guidebook for "Salon du Chocolat Paris," the world's largest chocolate festival.

The venue will showcase new photographs, artistically capturing exquisite chocolates. Furthermore, the first 20 visitors each day (30 on weekends) will receive a chocolate related to the new works, allowing them to experience the art through both sight and taste. On February 8th (Sat.) and 9th (Sun.), both chocolatiers will also offer limited sales of 100 units each of their new chocolate assortments, which received the highest rating of "5 Tablats" at last year's "Salon du Chocolat Paris."
