The special soft serve ice cream is exceptionally delicious! Special parfait at an ice cream shop (Kitakyushu City)
Hello♪ I'm Nanami, a writer who loves ice cream.
This time, we will introduce you to a delicious ice cream shop in Kiyota, Yahata city, that will have you falling in love with its cute illustrations ♡
Enjoy the deliciousness of this carefully crafted treat! A long-loved local ice cream shop, "Yukimon" (Kiyota, Yahata Ward, Kitakyushu City)
Yukimon is located about a minute's walk from the Nishitetsu Tsukida School bus stop, and is marked by blue walls and a soft serve ice cream ornament. Although it is a take-out specialty store, there are chairs in front of the store. Tsukida Elementary School and a park are right in front of the store, and you can hear the laughter of children.
There is also a car park for four cars just a short walk from the store.
Even though it's located in a quiet residential area, the shop was constantly filled with customers, from families with children to the elderly. It's been 19 years since the shop opened, and it's clear that it continues to be loved by the local community.
They serve ice cream and soft serve ice cream, with around 20 different ice cream flavors available at any given time, ranging from standard flavors like "vanilla" and "chocolate" to seasonal flavors and more unusual flavors like "Mojiko Beer."
You can choose from the following ice cream sizes: "Single" (390 yen), "Double" (590 yen), and "Triple" (700 yen). For the double and triple sizes, you can choose from "Ice cream x Ice cream" or "Ice cream x Soft serve" combinations.
They only have one type of soft serve ice cream, the rich milk flavored "Yukimon Soft" (390 yen for each cup and cone). They also have the child-friendly "Yukimon Soft Mini" (260 yen for each cup and cone).
The smooth texture and delicious taste are outstanding! The pudding soft serve and parfaits are also recommended.
In addition to simple ice cream and soft serve ice cream, we also have the following menu items!
On the left is the limited-time "Chocolate Caramel Parfait" (860 yen), and on the right is the popular regular menu "Pudding Soft Serve" (520 yen). *The end date for the "Chocolate Caramel Parfait" has not yet been decided, so please check the official Instagram for details.
The "Chocolate Caramel Parfait" cup contains chocolate ice cream and salted caramel ice cream, topped with Yukimon soft serve. The Yukimon soft serve is topped with plenty of chocolate sauce and caramel sauce! You can also enjoy the crunchy chocolate cookie on top and the crunchy texture of the sweet chocolate, making this a special parfait with an irresistible rich sweetness.
The "Pudding Soft" is a homemade pudding topped with plenty of Yukimon soft serve ice cream and drizzled with bittersweet caramel sauce. This homemade pudding is delicious! The perfect combination of soft serve ice cream and pudding will have you eating it all up in no time.
This is a single ice cream called "Chocolate" (390 yen).
Yukimon's ice cream is made by mixing air into it, which makes it very smooth and melts in your mouth. They use carefully selected ingredients such as cocoa from Ghana. This "Chocolate" is rich and not too sweet. You can really taste the deliciousness of the cocoa. It is the second most popular flavor after "Kokumiru".
Enjoy fresh and delicious ice cream at home ♪ "Cup Ice Cream"
In addition to take-out ice cream, they also sell cup ice cream that you can take home. It's nice to be able to enjoy fresh flavors at home.
The illustrations on the ice cream cups are indescribably cute! There are about 20 different flavors, each with a different illustration, and you'll be hooked on their mysterious charm and want to buy lots of them ♡
This time I bought the top three most popular flavors and one flavor that caught my eye.
The first one we would like to introduce is the most popular "Kokumiru" (360 yen).
This ice cream is made using the highest quality fresh cream from Ohmu Dairy (Omuta City), which has a reputation in the sweets industry as "professional cream chosen by professionals." The rich sweetness of fresh, delicious milk fills your mouth. The salt tightens the flavor, leaving a surprisingly clean aftertaste. This is the undisputed No. 1 most popular ice cream, so we recommend you try this first.
Next up is the second most popular, "Chocolate" (390 yen).
I tried it at the store, and was surprised at how delicious it was in a cup! I highly recommend this product to anyone who likes rich chocolate.
Next is the third most popular flavor, "Pistachio" (510 yen).
This ice cream has a fragrant taste that makes you feel as if you are eating raw pistachios. If you imagine a sweet pistachio dessert, you will be pleasantly surprised by its deliciousness! It also has a strong salty taste, so it would go well with alcohol. Apparently, the raw pistachios are deeply roasted, which is why it's brown in color. Once you try this ice cream, you'll be hooked♪
The last item on our list is the "NY Cheesecake" (390 yen).
The cute elephant-shaped cookie on top of the ice cream is a special combination of two types of ice cream: sour cream and cream cheese. The rich vanilla ice cream mixed with cheese creates a sweet and flavorful taste that is loved by both adults and children.
Be sure to visit the store to try the finest ice cream! (Text by Nanami)
