Kitchen Princess is a manga by Natsumi Ando and Miyuki Kobayashi in which every chapter is named after a dish. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of that dish, not the recipe from the book.
Mont Blanc is named after the snowy mountain in the Alps, and it is one of the most popular cakes in Japanese bakeries. Sweetened chestnut spread is sold in the international aisle of many stores and online.
Make it a learning moment: Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in western Europe. Find it on a map and see which countries share it.
