Among tourists visiting Nara and inbound customers, cool and refreshing sweets are becoming increasingly popular during summer city walks. Among them, soft serve ice cream that looks like a rose flower has been slowly gaining attention on SNS recently. There are still only a few stores in the Kansai region that offer this sweet, and it is a rarity even nationwide. The beautiful visual is cool and photo-worthy, and has caught the attention of many people through its spread on SNS.

Is this a flower shop? The "Rose Red Strawberry" soft serve ice cream looks so much like a rose that it could be mistaken for a flower shop. The beauty of the ice cream makes many people want to take a picture of it. The slight aroma of strawberries is a must. One bite and the flavor of strawberries spreads softly, and the texture is smooth and refreshing. With a refreshing aftertaste, it is a cool and refreshing sweet that is perfect for walking around town in the hot summer. Customers who have purchased the ice cream have commented, "It was beautiful! Ice cream that is refreshing even in summer!" It's so pretty. It tastes like strawberry sorbet.

One of the most enjoyable parts of sightseeing is eating and walking around. Nowadays, taking pictures with food is one of the pleasures of traveling. When I was looking for a sweet that was so fun to look at that I couldn't help but want to take a picture of it, I came across rose soft serve. While most vanilla soft serve is white, we decided on strawberry flavor, which is red like a real flower. I also wanted to make sure it tasted good, so I chose a strawberry flavor and texture that I was satisfied with, and decided to introduce it after tasting it myself.

It was not easy to create the beautiful rose shape, and after many hours of practice by our staff, we finally succeeded in making it beautiful no matter who rolled it. We also added leaves at the end to make the bouquet look more like a bouquet. The representative said, "We hope that our customers will have a memorable time during their sightseeing in Nara.

Takoyaki Hachibei will start a "100 yen cash back for SNS postings" campaign from July 1, 2025, so that more people can enjoy the bouquet.
