'Yawamochi Ice Strawberry Condensed Milk Ice' Tasting Review: A combination of the chewy texture of mochi and the crunchy texture of shaved ice

On July 14, 2025, Imuraya will release ' Yawamochi Ice Strawberry Condensed Milk Ice '. It is an ice cream with strawberries, condensed milk sauce and 'mochi' on top of shaved ice with condensed milk, so I actually tried this product that was provided to me prior to its release.

Information on the seasonal release of 'Yawamochi Ice Strawberry Condensed Milk Ice' | News Release | Imuraya Co., Ltd.

It is classified as a 'frozen dessert' and its ingredients include strawberry juice, powdered candy, mochi flour, and shiratama flour.

The calorie content is 178kcal per piece.

When you open the lid, it looks like this. You can see red strawberry sauce, white condensed milk sauce, and five rice cakes.

When I put a spoon in, the sauce was squishy.

In addition to the contrast in taste between the sweet and sour strawberry sauce and the sweet condensed milk sauce, the contrast in texture between the chewy mochi and the crunchy shaved ice is also impressive. The mochi is soft and sweet, melting in your mouth. The shaved ice is not watery at all, but rather has a sweet taste that comes from the condensed milk sauce. This is a dish that allows you to enjoy a texture that you can't get with regular smooth ice cream.

The price of 'Yawamochi Ice Strawberry Condensed Milk Ice' is 183 yen including tax. It will be sold at mass retailers and supermarkets nationwide and at the Imuraya web shop from July 14, 2025.
