Smooth Pudding

Smooth Pudding" was created in 1993 and has remained a favorite nearly 30 years after its launch. Pastel's signature product, characterized by its melt-in-your-mouth smooth texture, has been renewed with a renewed focus on "smoothness.

In order to create the "smooth" texture that gives Smooth Pudding its name, there is something that Pastel has been focusing on since its establishment. The first of these is the slow baking process. By controlling the baking time, temperature, and amount of humidity, we are able to control the softness while maintaining the moistness, so that the layer with the higher milk fat content is on top and the layer with the lower milk fat content is on the bottom. The lower layer has a light and milky taste.

Secondly, the ingredients are simple and carefully selected to bring out the smoothness of the texture. Only egg yolks are used to maximize the smoothness. Only cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla are added, and the mixture is baked together with caramel. For this renewal, the formula has been adjusted to make it even smoother and tastier than before.

The smooth top layer, characterized by a thick texture, has a creamier and sweeter taste. The bottom layer, which has a slightly firmer texture, allows you to enjoy the delicious taste of milk and a refreshing sensation. The richness and milkyness of the whipped cream has been improved, and the smoothness of the cream can be enjoyed more than before.
