Sanrio Cafe in Tokyo Celebrates 45 Years of Hello Kitty with the Cutest New Desserts

Hello Kitty is turning 45 this year but she hasn’t aged a bit since she first turned up on the scene. Her merchandise can be found everywhere in Japan, going as far as Hello Kitty hotel rooms and Hello Kitty bullet trains.

Still as cute and stylish as she was back in 1974, her feline charms are now being brought to a new cafe collaboration in Shinjuku, Tokyo. The cafe will celebrate the 45th anniversary since the birth of the beloved character.

Not only are the dishes inspired by her look, but also, apparently, her worldview, so you can enjoy some of Kitty’s favourite foods while contemplating her general outlook on life.

The Anniversary Party Set comes with two soft drinks, making it perfect for a couple of kitty fans to share. The afternoon tea presentation style radiates classy but kawaii vibes, the savoury option of tuna souffle pancakes occupies the bottom and then a myriad of desserts such as rollcakes and apple pie (Kitty's favourite) make up the top two tiers.

The fluffy apple and custard pancakes are particularly Insta-worthy, combining Japan's internet famous souffle pancakes and the world famous character.
