Autumn is the season of appetite, and foods such as matsutake mushrooms, autumn fish, and chestnuts are all available.

First, let's check out the package! The storefront is different from the others, emitting a nice, savory smell that makes you want to keep smelling it at summer festivals, and that should ring a bell, right? That's right, it's ama-tsuri (sweet chestnuts)!
Every bag of sweet chestnuts is red like this package, right? Chestnuts + red color makes us nostalgic and reminds us of the warmth of sweet chestnuts.

PERIPERIPERIPERIPERIPE!
The five pieces of mochi look so cute, like a flower pattern! It seems that the flavor and texture of this ice cream changes as it begins to melt, so I'm going to try it when it's just "slightly melted"!
How does the "slightly melted" ice cream taste?
You can feel the aroma of chestnuts and the gentle sweetness of the mochi! I have always had an image of rice cake with a texture that sticks to the back of my teeth, but this rice cake is made ofshiratama (white bean) flour andglutinous rice flour, so it is very smooth and easy to eat. The ice cream is filled with chestnut dice and chestnut bean paste! You can enjoy chestnuts with a different texture.
The texture of the mochi is really good and you don't feel the taste rancid! I almost gobbled it up, but I was also worried about the melted state, so I tasted it slowly...
After waiting for a few minutes, the chestnut ice cream seemed richer, and the chestnut bean paste had an interesting texture!
