The quiche, which is inspired by Pikachu's electric generator, is sprinkled with sansho (Japanese pepper) powder to give it a crunchy texture, and the chocolate lollipop has a technique that makes it crackle when it is placed in the mouth. This afternoon tea is a delight for the senses, allowing you to feel Pikachu with both your eyes and mouth.
