From Hara Museum ARC, Gunma
From time to time, we report on the newest “Image Cake” at Hara Museum ARC, the special weekend cake selection that takes as its motif an actual work of art from the current exhibition.
The newest Image Cake is inspired by a work by Jonathan Borofsky entitled Chattering Man, now on view in Cosmos: Selections from the Hara Museum Collection.
Jonathan Borofsky, Chattering Man with Six Drawings (detail) 1987
This layered concoction is made up of a cream-cheese mousse, strawberry mousse and chocolate sponge cake. It is light and refreshing, yet deliciously rich in flavor. Like other Image Cakes before it, this one is available for a limited time only. So why not come and enjoy the show, then treat yourself to an edible work of art on the terrace of the Café d’Art? A beautiful view is included!
