Shibuya Toast

Ingredients:
1 pc Thick Toast (I baked a loaf of bread)
Ice Cream
Fruits
Nuts
Pocky
Kit Kat
Mint Leaves
Honey
Chocolate flakes/sauce
Oreos
Sprinkles
Anything you can think of

Method:
1. Cut out the inner white bread & you get an empty bread box.
2. Cut them into cubes/squares (from the inner bread that you dig out in Step 1.). Spread some butter on them and toast it.
3. Toast the empty bread box.
4. Quickly fan all the bread to cool them down.
5. Fill the empty bread box with the bread cubes, topped with ice cream, fruits, nuts, pocky, kit kat, and anything else that is suitable.

Note
1. Do it quickly or else the ice cream will be melting away...
2. If you are not baking the bread, you can purchase thick bread slices from bakeries like Four Leaves, or similar Japanese Bakeries. Then butter both sides, toast them, cut them into cubes. Stack like 3 to 4 layers, and they should look as good too.

10 pcs Red Dates (Remove seeds)
30g Rock honey sugar (adjust to your preference)

2. Rinse all the ingredients.
3. Boil the water over medium fire.
4. Add Red Dates in the boiling water for 10 mins, then add the longan & boil for another 10 mins.

7. I added wolfberries and osmanthus just before I served the dessert.

Can be served as a hot dessert or cold dessert.

I bought the peach gum from Albert Centre. You can find them from Fu Hua too.

Note
Some say not suitable for pregnant ladies & do not consume when you are having your menses (please google), some say it's ok. I am not really sure. I believe everything in moderation.
