Matsuzaka Ueno Store will be holding “Matsuzaka Ueno Store Valentine 2024” from February 1st (Thursday) to February 14th (Wednesday). This year, we are focusing on “Japanese Choco” which gives you a sense of “Japanese”. We will be introducing chocolates that make you feel “Japanese'' when you look at them and eat them, including chocolates with Japanese designs such as Japanese patterns and Japanese sweets, and chocolates made with Japanese ingredients such as alcoholic drinks such as sake, matcha, and Japanese thin cargo.9 A total of 70 domestic and international brands will be gathered together. In addition, in recent years, the way people enjoy Valentine's Day has diversified, as the demand for rewarding themselves has increased. Therefore, we will expand our selection of Japanese and Western sweets in addition to chocolate to make this once-a-year sweets festival even more exciting.
