The famous soft cream "Mikan Bonbon" from "Kuriimu-do" in Kakogawa City, Hyogo Prefecture, which created lines of up to 120 minutes at past events, is finally coming to Tokyo. Starting September 26th (Friday), it will be available for a limited time at "Aipaku® TOKYO Harajuku Store." Experience this new frontier of "fruit-based soft cream" that uses whole oranges luxuriously and has been called "sinfully indulgent" on social media.
SNS Sensation! The Shocking Visual Called "Fruit Violence"
"Mikan Bonbon" is a "sinful sweet" featuring rich soft cream generously topped with whole juicy oranges. Social media has been flooded with posts calling it "sinfully delicious" and "fruit violence," quickly becoming a sensation. Beyond its visual impact, the perfect harmony between the fruit's refreshing taste and the rich soft cream creates an unforgettable flavor experience. At past "Aipaku®" events, lines of 90-120 minutes formed. The rarity of being able to enjoy this only at "Aipaku® TOKYO" in Tokyo has generated significant attention for this release.

Supervised by the Original Kuriimu-do! Craft Soft with Mountains of Fruit
This "Mikan Bonbon" faithfully recreates the original Kuriimu-do form. While maintaining the visual impact of piled-high oranges, the soft cream portion uses "Craft Soft Cream" made with carefully selected dairy ingredients directly shipped from farmers nationwide. Finished using high-performance machines from Italy's Carpigiani company, known as the "Ferrari of the soft cream world," this achieves smooth texture and maximizes the natural flavors of the ingredients, creating perfect balance with the oranges' refreshing taste.
The soft cream specialty shop "Kuriimu-do" in Kakogawa City, Hyogo Prefecture, offers over 50 menu items that never get boring no matter how many times you visit. The unique ordering system of bringing wall-mounted cards to the register adds excitement from the moment of selection. They also offer abundant seasonal limited products such as parfaits using seasonal fruits. Come discover your own original soft cream.
Japan's First! New Values Proposed by "Craft Soft Cream" Specialty Store
"Aipaku® TOKYO" is Japan's first specialty store for "Craft Soft Cream" and local ice creams, supervised by Japan's first ice cream critic, Ice Man Fukudome. They are particular about lineups where you can see the producer's face, using farm-direct fresh milk.
Three Characteristics of Craft Soft Cream:
- Farm-direct dairy ingredients - Partnering with farmers nationwide, using freshly squeezed milk
- Ingredient transparency - Clearly disclosing origin and components
- Craftsman technique - Precisely adjusting overrun and temperature
Against existing soft cream that tends to have uniform taste due to efficiency and cost priorities, this proposes new value that brings out the unique character of ingredients. They aim to improve the quality of Japan's soft cream culture.
Autumn Limited! "Grape Jewel Parfait" Also Making Headlines
The beautiful cross-sections of green Shine Muscat and ruby-like Queen Rouge grapes, cut in half, are arranged as decoration, creating a gorgeous visual presentation.
At the bottom of the cup container, they generously layer "Berry A" grape gelato made by Yamanashi peach farm cafe "La Pesca," pile fresh grapes on top, and add fluffy whipped cream and smooth craft soft cream using carefully selected milk from Hokkaido's eastern region.
Furthermore, half-cut grapes of two colors are scattered around the soft cream, creating a sparkle like a scattered jewelry box.
This luxurious parfait allows you to enjoy the harmony of fruit freshness, creamy taste, and rich gelato all at once.
