Pumpkin ... a treasure ...? Attracted by the naming sense, I bought it immediately. The selling price at a certain convenience store was 140 yen.
Looking at the raw materials written on the lid, pumpkin bean paste, pumpkin paste, pumpkin powder and "pumpkin" are listed, and even a note saying "Pumpkin-derived fiber may enter" .. The orange container, the letters written on the lid, and the visuals that make you feel that pumpkins are used abundantly give you a sense of treasure, not a treasure house.
When you open the lid, the sweet scent of pumpkin fluffs from the yellow ice cream. I can't see the pumpkin paste yet.
If you take a bite, you can see the pumpkin bean paste as soon as possible! There was more in the bottom, or in the center, than I had imagined. Unless it's very close to the side of the cup, you can enjoy the harmony of pumpkin ice cream and pumpkin bean paste from the first bite.
Pumpkin ice cream has a fluffy, light whip-like mouthfeel. It melts smoothly on the tongue. It has a strong sweetness peculiar to pumpkin, and it is so rich that you can feel that "feeling of warmth" when you eat pumpkin.
In addition, the bean paste is thicker than ice cream! When you lift it, it's so thick that it gets horny, and the taste and aroma are savory and pumpkin. When this is entwined with ice cream and eaten, the sweetness of pumpkin like fragrant honey spreads throughout the mouth and nose as if it were "this is it!".
The secret treasure that shines golden is probably this pumpkin bean paste. I've already been captivated by the deliciousness of pumpkin ice cream, which is filled with sweet honey-like "hidden treasures" and exceeds expectations. I personally think that the taste is as perfect as a little expensive ice cream!
By the way, as an aside, there are two types of cup designs, one with the bottom of the cup in the shape of a "pumpkin" and the other with the face of "Jack-o-Lantern". Since it's a big deal, eating with the Halloween-specific "Jack-o-Lantern" will give you a better sense of the season. I tried to compare the contents just in case, but the taste was the same, so don't worry!
