Sapporo Prince Hotel Extends Strawberry Afternoon Tea "RUBY MOMENTS" Through May 2026

Sapporo Prince Hotel Extends Strawberry Afternoon Tea "RUBY MOMENTS" Through May 2026

The Sky Lounge Top of Prince, situated on the 28th floor of Sapporo Prince Hotel, is offering the second installment of its strawberry afternoon tea series. Titled "RUBY MOMENTS," the event runs from March 15 (Sun) to May 14 (Thu), 2026 — extended from the popular first edition due to strong demand.

Spring is a season that begins with soft, tender hues before deepening into vivid, saturated colors. The theme of "enjoying strawberries twice" runs through both editions: the first, "ROSY MOMENTS," captured early spring with delicate pastels and fresh strawberries, while the second, "RUBY MOMENTS," celebrates the full bloom of spring through ruby-red strawberries and rich chocolate. Both plans are well-suited for graduation and farewell gatherings, spring break, and Golden Week leisure.

Three Recommended Desserts by the Pastry Chef

Rouge Cassis (left)

A cake combining tart cassis mousse with smooth white chocolate ganache, balancing milky sweetness with refreshing acidity. Topped with a juicy strawberry for an indulgent finish.

Cube Noir (center)

Rich and smooth chocolate mousse layered with crispy chocolate flakes made using almond praline — creating a delightful contrast between melt-in-your-mouth mousse and a satisfying crunch.

Ruby Chocolat Mousse (right)

A mousse crafted from ruby chocolate, known for its characteristic tartness, brightened with orange confit and a strawberry jelly center. The subtle bitterness and sweet-tart notes come together in a well-balanced dessert.

Period: Until March 14 (Sat), 2026

Pastry Chef: Kaneko Hiroya

Three Recommended Desserts by the Pastry Chef

Strawberry & Mascarpone Tart (left)

A crispy tart base holds custard cream and fresh strawberry, topped with a generous piping of Hokkaido mascarpone cream. The bright acidity of the fruit and the richness of the mascarpone are a natural pairing.

Fraise Silhouette (center)

A smooth strawberry mousse shaped like a whole strawberry, with a sweet-tart framboise jelly tucked inside. A charming pink heart-shaped cookie forms the base for both visual and flavor appeal.

Rouge Blanc Cube (right)

Ruby chocolate mousse enhanced with yuzu marmalade, adding a citrusy aroma that lends depth and complexity to the flavor. Finished with a delicate pink glaze.
