The quality of Japanese convenience store sweets is amazing, isn't it? I always look forward to checking out the new releases every autumn!
This season, I especially recommend the "Premium Soft – Mont Blanc Caramelisé" from MINISTOP. MINISTOP is a popular convenience store chain in Japan, well known for its parfait-style desserts that you can order right at the counter.
This one features roasted sweet potato–flavored soft serve topped with Mont Blanc cream and caramelized white sesame—it's seriously delicious and full of autumn flavor!
You can easily find MINISTOP stores around Tokyo and other major cities, so it's perfect for a quick sweet treat while sightseeing. 🍂🍦
Autumn has only just started, and I've already had it three times (haha).
