Maple Syrup Pool – Japanese Spa Pancake Bath

Do you love maple syrup so much you wish you could bath in it? Well, thanks to a spa resort in Japan your dreams are about to come true.

From now until April 25, you can take a dip in a special pancake-inspired bath as part of the 60th anniversary celebration of Morinaga hot cake mix at the Hakone Kowakien Yunessun spa resort near Mount Fuji.

While the Japanese name for the baths translates to “hot cake bath,” don’t expect to find a tub full of pancake batter. Instead, the tubs are full of vanilla and maple-scented water. In fact, real maple syrup is added to the baths three times a day, according to IT Media.

If breakfast isn’t really your thing, you can also take a bath in red wine, green tea, chocolate or ramen broth at this spa (yes, really).

While some of these other special baths — like the red wine and green tea ones — are supposed to have skin beautifying effects, the new pancake baths apparently promote blood circulation and moisturize your skin. But even if they don’t, it’ll still make you crave pancakes, which is totally fine with us.
