So excited! Online ordering is now available at Sadaharu Aoki's website! Aoki is a pastry artist and specialist in matcha confectionery. If you haven't heard of him or seen his delectable pastries, check out the following posts -- I should have known he's got a huge following in the food blogger world already!

Aoki also has two shops in Tokyo, and a third is set to open at Tokyo Midtown on March 30, 2007.

Now you know what I'm giving myself as a Valentine's Day gift; a consolation prize, yes, especially since his most famous creations aren't available for shipment, but I'm not any less thankful as it's still a fraction of airfare to Paris or Tokyo.
