Fukuoka is a big producer of strawberries, so when the fruit comes into season in the spring, you can find them everywhere throughout the city.

The Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk, a resort hotel in Momochi, not far from the city center, is currently running a sweets buffet that makes lavish use of strawberries.<\/p>\n

\"<\/p>\n

For this seasonal event, one corner of the spacious Seala Brasserie and Lounge, the largest dining space of its kind in Fukuoka, is transformed into a secret garden-like buffet venue. The strawberry-themed spring sweets buffet is one of the most popular of the hotel\u2019s regular sweets buffets held throughout the year.<\/p>\n

\"Hilton<\/p>\n

This year, the buffet features two types of local strawberries: Amaou, the extremely well-known \u201cKing of Strawberries,\u201d and Ichigosan, a new brand of strawberries produced in Saga Prefecture whose catchphrase is “perfectly shaped and delightfully sweet.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to classics like shortcake and cheesecake, the buffet features an array of exquisitely crafted sweets like candied Amaou, strawberry-laden tarts and strawberry fondue.<\/p>\n

The in-house p\u00e2tissier’s specialty is the Amaou guimauve. It has the texture of a marshmallow, but is made with gelatin instead of egg whites, so it is soft and fluffy but yet still moist and sweet, with just a hint of Amaou flavor.<\/p>\n

Also, you won\u2019t want to miss the pavlova, a traditional dessert popular in Australia and New Zealand that is hard to find in Fukuoka.<\/p>\n
