I tried Imuraya's 'Yawamochi Ice Cream Chestnut Dzukushi', which uses chestnuts in all the ice cream, bean paste, and mochi, and has a sticky texture that is irresistible for chestnut lovers.



Imuraya's '

Yawamochi Ice ' series, which is well known for its Chinese buns and azuki bars, will be releasing 'Yawamochi Ice Chestnut All-Purpose ,' which uses chestnuts everywhere, such as chestnut paste with diced chestnuts, chestnut ice cream, and chestnut mochi, from Monday, September 16, 2024. It is said to be a dish that allows you to enjoy the fluffy texture of the chestnut paste and the different texture of the chestnut dices, which serves as an accent, so I actually tried it.

The package for 'Yawamochi Ice Chestnut' looks like this.



The type of ice cream is lacto ice cream, which contains 7.0% non-fat milk solids, 0.4% milk fat, and 7.9% vegetable fat. Ingredients include powdered candy, fresh bean paste, sugar, chestnut paste, and candied chestnuts.



Each piece contains 231kcal.



When I opened it, I found brown chestnut paste and five chestnut mochi rice cakes lined up on top of the white chestnut ice cream. The rice cakes are 'chestnut mochi' made with chestnut paste.



First, try the chestnut mochi and chestnut paste. The chewy texture of the chestnut mochi and the sweet, fragrant taste of chestnuts spread in your mouth. The chestnut paste also has a strong chestnut flavor. The sticky texture of the chestnut paste is also distinctive.



The 'Yawamochi Ice Cream Chestnut All You Need' has a four-layer structure, with chestnut ice cream underneath the layers of chestnut mochi and chestnut paste. The chestnut ice cream is further stuffed with chestnut paste containing diced chestnuts. The 'dice chestnuts' are said to be candied chestnuts.



When you eat the chestnut ice cream with the diced chestnuts in the center, the rich sweetness of the chestnuts spreads in your mouth. The granular texture of the candied chestnuts adds a nice accent to the sticky chestnut paste.



Imuraya's 'Yawamochi Ice Chestnut' will be sold at mass retailers, supermarkets, convenience stores, etc. nationwide from Monday, September 16, 2024, with a suggested retail price of 172 yen including tax. In addition, a sales page is already available on Imuraya's official website, and the price is 1,376 yen including tax for a set of 8 (172 yen per piece).
