This jarred dessert is finished with chocolate bits, and comes with a pipette of more Kahlua and Marsala liqueur syrup, just in case you think you need an extra alcoholic kick.

If you’re a hojicha fan, definitely don’t skip Nesuto’s Konichiwa Hōjicha ($11.90++), which stars the roasted Japanese tea as a ganache, Chantilly cream, and vanilla souffle sponge. ICYMI, Nesuto is famed for their light-as-air chiffon cake layers, which makes indulging in their bakes that much easier.
