PR TIMES

Rakugan with Wasanbon

• Kirby: Clear the stage! The round and round pink Kirby, twirling in the well-known "Clear Dance" of Kirby the Star, is made into a smooth, cute, and delicious rakugan! The cute expression on his face is the result of exquisite craftsmanship.
• Fountain of Dreams: The "Fountain of Dreams" that brings dreams to the world, as seen in the game. It is characterized by its fine texture and elegant sweetness that melts in your mouth. The "Star Rod," the source of dreams, and the overflowing water of the fountain have also been delicately reproduced.
• Water: The traditional wooden model of "Tsuruya Yoshinobu" is used to depict the ripples of the spreading water. The dream that flows from the fountain eventually becomes drops of water and mist that spread around the world...

Rakigane (falling geese)

• Hoshi: A crispy texture of two cute stars in a row. Softer than the ones with wasanbon sugar, you can enjoy the gentle taste of the stars as they melt away. It looks like a star shining in the night sky of a pop star.

Amber sugar

• Star: The faintly glimmering stars have become "amber sugar," which has been talked about in recent years as "edible jewelry. The unique texture of the sugar is created by molding each one individually in a special die and then drying it slowly. Enjoy it with Kirby and his friends in a cute arrangement!
