The much-talked-about cat pudding is now available! "You'll want to eat as many as you can" - A store selling exquisite fruit daifuku (Kyomachi, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City)

Hello. This is Chihi Log, a casual website that provides information about Fukuoka, with a focus on gourmet food.

This time, we will introduce a popular sweets shop located in Kyomachi, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City.

"Ogura Fruit Shunka Suzuran" (Kyomachi, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City) offers a selection of carefully selected fruit daifuku

"Kokura Fruit Shunka Suzuran" is located about a 7-minute walk from JR Kokura Station, right in front of "Kokura Izutsuya".

This is a shop where you can enjoy popular sweets, including fruit daifuku.

When you enter the store, you'll see a row of seasonal fruit daifuku samples! There is also an eat-in space, so you can casually eat inside the store and then take it home.

The lineup of their signature fruit daifuku changes depending on the season. On this day, there were about 16 varieties.

Prices start from 300 yen each, and since we visited in the afternoon, nearly half of the menu items were sold out.

When it opened in July 2022, I became a big fan after hearing the owner's desire to open a store specializing in fruit daifuku.

Our Fruit Daifuku is made without compromise, using carefully selected ingredients and going through much trial and error, making it truly delicious.

The red string is used to cut it in half. The beautiful cut surface is irresistible!

The fruits used are sourced from Fruit Shop Yagi, a greengrocer located in Tanga Market.

The white bean paste is from Kitagawa Seian in Iizuka City. It seems that famous, long-established Japanese sweets shops also use the bean paste from this shop.

The exquisite softness of the gyuhi and the refined white bean paste, which conveys a high-quality feel, enhance the flavor of the fruit.

The sweetness of the whole is just right, and it's so delicious you can eat as many as you like.

There is also a rare chocolate-flavored fruit daifuku!

"Strawberry Chocolate" (450 yen) and "Banana Chocolate" (350 yen) are filled with plenty of chocolate!

Chocolate and strawberries go perfectly together! I was completely hooked on the chewy texture of the gyuhi and the rich, refined flavor of the chocolate.

Other items on offer include "Matcha Strawberry" (450 yen), which was also used in the "Musashi (Japanese) and Kojiro (Western) Sweets" candidate menu item at the "36th Ryuo Championship Seven-Game Match, Third Round, Kitakyushu Match" held in Kitakyushu City (former Yasukawa Residence) in October 2023.

The fruit daifuku can be packed in a box at no extra charge, but they also sell wooden gift boxes, making them perfect as gifts.

Not just fruit daifuku! Lots of affordable sweets to enjoy

In addition to fruit daifuku, we also have a wide variety of affordable sweets available!

Two types of croffles that are just too cute!

Crouffles are perfect for eating on the go and are so cute they'll make your heart flutter.

There are two types, "Croffle Strawberry Chocolate" (500 yen) and "Croffle Chocolate" (450 yen), both of which are so cutely decorated that it's almost a shame to eat them.

The croffle had a chewy and fluffy texture that was also enjoyable.

"Fruit candy" made with carefully selected fruits

"Strawberry Candy" (500 yen) and "Shine Muscat Candy" (500 yen) are candies made from the high-quality fruits used in "Fruit Daifuku".

It's crisp and juicy, with a refined sweetness and fruity flavor that will become addictive.

You can also add a love fortune for an additional 50 yen.

Choose from 3 different flavors! The currently popular "Cat Pudding"

Actually, what I was looking for this time was the recently released "Neko Pudding" (600 yen, eat-in only). It comes in three flavors: milk, strawberry, and chocolate, and can be ordered without a drink.

I tried each one and was very satisfied with the rich flavor of each one! They were more filling than I expected and I was full!

During events, you may even receive a free gyuhi "cloak"! Be sure to check out the store's Instagram.
