Hotel Granvia Okayama (1-5 Ekimoto-cho, Kita-ku, Okayama City) will begin taking reservations for its "Christmas Cake 2026" on Thursday, October 1, 2026, at Lobby Lounge Lumière (ルミエール) on the 1st floor.
This year's lineup has three items. They are the Christmas cake "Premium Fraise de Noël (プレミアム フレーズ・ド・ノエル)," made with a fine-textured, soft sponge and high-quality fresh cream. Next is "Granvia Stollen (グランヴィアシュトーレン)," a traditional sweet to enjoy a little at a time while waiting for Christmas. The third is "Oven-Fresh Steamed Chocolat (窯出し蒸しショコラ)," with a soft, delicate melt in the mouth. Reservation benefits are also available for JR Hotel Members and WESTER members. The sweets are made by the hotel's pastry chefs for a Christmas Eve with family or someone special.
Christmas Cake and Sweets Collection
Premium Fraise de Noël (プレミアム フレーズ・ド・ノエル)
¥7,500 (member price ¥7,000). 15 cm. Limited to 500 cakes.
A classic shortcake to brighten the table on Christmas Eve. It uses a soft sponge baked fine and dense, together with fresh cream that is rich yet melts easily and leaves a clean aftertaste. Large whole strawberries are placed on top.
Granvia Stollen (グランヴィアシュトーレン)
¥3,800 (member price ¥3,610). Limited to 100.
A traditional German sweet in which dried fruit soaked slowly in liquor and fragrant nuts come through richly. Sliced and eaten little by little while waiting for Christmas, it lets the fruit flavor soak into the dough day by day, so the taste deepens over time.
Oven-Fresh Steamed Chocolat (窯出し蒸しショコラ)
¥3,000 (member price ¥2,850). Limited to 100.
The cake is decorated with one of three illustrations: a reindeer, Santa Claus, or a Christmas fairy. Which one arrives is a surprise until the box is opened.
The cake is made for a surprisingly soft, delicate texture that crumbles gently in the mouth. Slow steam-baking locks in moisture, giving a chocolate cake that combines a rich, deep chocolate flavor with a light texture.
