Häagen-Dazs' 'Pear & Milk' bar offers a delightful blend of refreshing pear and rich ice cream flavors, creating a constantly evolving taste experience.



Haagen-Dazs' new limited-edition ice cream bar, 'Pear & Milk,' will be released on June 9th, 2026 (Tuesday). It's described as 'a refreshing ice cream bar perfect for summer, combining the fruity taste of pear with rich milk,' and the surface coating has a two-layer structure using pear juice and pulp. I had the opportunity to try it ahead of time, so I tasted it to see what it was like.

This is what the outer box of the 'Pear & Milk' bar looks like. It highlights that it uses 25% pear juice and pulp.



The ice cream portion is made from cream, skimmed condensed milk, sugar, and egg yolk. The fruit coating consists of pear preserves, pear sauce, and a stabilizer. The ice cream has a richer flavor than usual; while

the mini cup 'The Milk' has a milk fat content of 14.5%, the ice cream used in the 'Pear & Milk' bar has a milk fat content of 16.0%.

When I opened the box, I found individually wrapped ice cream bars inside a bag.



When you take the ice bar out, it looks like this; it's cream-colored.



Curious about what was inside, I cut it open with a knife. The fruit coating on the surface is in two layers, with white ice cream inside. When I tasted it, the outer layer of the fruit coating was made with pear puree, giving it a strong pear flavor, while the inner layer was made with pear pulp, resulting in the characteristic sticky yet slightly grainy texture of pears. The sweetness and richness of the ice cream blended with the pear flavor, and I enjoyed how the taste changed as I continued to eat it.



The 'Pear & Milk' bar will be available nationwide for a limited time starting June 9th, 2026 (Tuesday). The suggested retail price is 373 yen (tax included).
