A sweet treat for the Year of the Rooster
Dessert chain Cozy Corner is celebrating 2017 with a small cake resembling the Chinese Zodiac animal of the next 12 months, the chicken. It's a sweet, photogenic addition to any New Year's parties or family gatherings you might be attending in the next few days. This fowl delight (¥540) features a rich chestnut cream surrounding a bird's head, which looks cute but offers a sugary contrast to the nutty flavor of the cream. The fowl is tasty, and Cozy Corner says it will bring you good luck for the Year of the Rooster. But act fast, the promotion ends on Jan. 4.

Confectionery chain Cozy Corner is banking on something new that falls between the two extremes. Its new CoCo Jelly comes in three flavors — peach, mango and muscat grape — with real chunks of fruit included. The jelly (¥205) is refreshingly tart, and complimented by the nice juicy kick from the fruit floating within.
