Wakuwaku Academy atmosphere

About Wakuwaku Academy

"Wakuwaku Academy" is an experiential event where hotel pastry chefs serve as instructors, allowing parents and children to enjoy making sweets together while learning about food.

In this edition, participants will challenge themselves to create an adorable "Bear Chocolate Tart" featuring pudding-filled tart shells topped with chocolate cream and shaped into a bear's face. The sweets made based on an original recipe devised by the pastry chef, with advice throughout the process, can be taken home. This event offers a memorable Valentine's Day experience for families.

Dinner buffet setting

After creating sweets, the "Dinner Buffet - Night Amusement Park Dining" at the all-day dining restaurant "Le Jardin" will be served. Located in the atrium illuminated by sparkling lights, guests can enjoy a diverse buffet featuring approximately 60 Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes made with seasonal ingredients.

"Wakuwaku Academy" will continue to be held regularly as an event for family bonding and learning through seasonal themed sweets making.
