[Hakata Station] Delicious soft serve ice cream is a must-try! A chocolate brand used by the royal family, available in Fukuoka for a limited time only

Hello! I'm Hakata Aya, a writer who loves hot information about Fukuoka.

A shop of a chocolate brand that is a supplier to the Belgian royal family has opened for a limited time inside JR Hakata Station!

The popular chocolates and take-out soft serve ice cream are also attracting attention.

Pierre Marcolini, the chocolate brand used by the Belgian royal family, is now available at JR Hakata Station for a limited time only (Hakataeki Chuo-gai, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City)

This time, "Pierre Marcolini" will open in the pop-up space of "Ippin Nishidori" inside JR Hakata Station. It will be open for a limited time from Wednesday, May 22nd to Sunday, June 30th, 2024.

Pierre Marcolini, which first arrived in Japan in 2011, currently operates 10 stores across the country, including its flagship store in Ginza and at Haneda Station. Unfortunately, there is no permanent store in Fukuoka, but you will likely see them at special events during the Valentine's Day season.

This pop-up will also feature the macarons and baked goods made by Pierre Marcolini, which is known for its chocolate.

The macarons lined up in the showcase have lovely pale colors. They are masterpieces that combine Pierre Marcolini's sense with a lot of attention to detail. You can enjoy the smooth flavors of ganache and cream.

The flavors are: "Chuao," a bitter chocolate ganache made from cacao from Chuao, Venezuela; "Pale Caramel," a ganache of vanilla-flavored caramel and bitter chocolate; "Pistache," a white chocolate ganache flavored with Maldon salt and Iranian pistachios; "Fruits de la Passion," a passion fruit-flavored white chocolate ganache; "Caramel Beurre Sale," a buttercream made with Maldon salt and salted butter caramel; "Vanille," a vanilla-flavored white chocolate ganache; "Rose," a rose-flavored buttercream; and "Te Citron," a milk and bitter chocolate ganache flavored with tea and lime.

There are two options: a pack of four (2,052 yen) and a pack of eight (3,888 yen), and you can choose your favorite flavor.

The heart-shaped chocolate is adorable! Rich raspberry soft serve ice cream

A particularly noteworthy menu item at the pop-up is the take-out "Framboise Soft Serve Ice Cream" (864 yen).

This rich soft chocolate is made using original couverture and is topped with raspberry sauce and raspberry crispy, as well as a whole piece of the popular chocolate "Cool Framboise"!

The richness of the chocolate and the sourness of the raspberries are perfectly balanced, and although it is sweet, the aftertaste is surprisingly refreshing. It's a soft serve ice cream with a flavor that will have you eating it one after another♪
