On September 3, 2024 (Tuesday), Häagen-Dazs launched a limited time sale of mini cups " Sai imo ~Mitsu imo & Murasaki imo~ ". It is characterized by the use of two kinds of sweet potatoes, which cannot be tasted with only one kind of sweet potato. The calendar says it's already autumn, but due to the heat, I haven't felt the season at all, so I'm going to try to feel autumn with "Sai imo ~Mitsuimo & Murasaki imo~"!
What is the design of this Haagen-Dazs?
The "Saisaimo - Honey and Purple Imo" is made from two kinds of sweet potatoes, honey and purple, so you can feel the warm yellow and purple of the main colors of each sweet potato. As you can see, the package has a beautiful contrast that makes you feel "it's autumn".

Opening the lid, we see a cute pastel-colored purple and yellow ice cream! I confirmed that there are two kinds of ice cream in the package! You can taste each flavor. The mitsuimo is made from "Beniharuka" and the miyamurasaki is made from "Ayamurazaki". When you open the package, you can smell the rich aroma of sweet potatoes!
The long-awaited taste!
The first thing to notice about the taste is how creamy it is! You can enjoy the taste and aroma of the sweet potato afterwards! The sweetness is just as it says "mitsu imo" (honey sweet potato), and I felt the gentle sweetness of the honey. The purple part is made from 100% ayamurazaki, which matches the aroma and gentle flavor of the sweet potato!
