The precise timing of the blooming of Japan’s cherry blossom timber could be arduous to pin down, making planning for sakura-viewing excursions tough. Sakura sweets snacking periods, although, are simpler to schedule, particularly with 7-Eleven Japan being so variety as to designate the on-sale dates for this 12 months’s lineup.
Mercifully, the releases are being staggered, since we’re undecided that even now we have house to eat all 5 of the desserts in in the future.
First up is the Melty Sakura Milk Pudding, or Torokeru Sakura Milk Purin, for those who’re asking for it in Japanese. 302 yen will get you a cup of milk pudding with the scent and taste of sakura, topped with crisscrossing streaks of sakura sauce and sakura whipped cream.

Additionally obtainable now could be the Sakura and Uji Matcha Japanese Parfait (430 yen), combining Japan’s two most consultant dessert flavors. Ranging from the underside and dealing our means up, we’ve acquired matcha gelatin, sakura mousse, matcha mousse, sakura an (candy bean paste) whipped cream, jiggly matcha milk warabi mochi, dango (mochi dumplings), and a slice of the pancake-like pastry used for dorayaki.

And in order for you one among Japan’s extra classical cherry blossom confectionaries, 7-Eleven has Sakura Mochi (203 yen). Particularly, 7-Eleven is providing sakura mochi made within the Domyoji type common in central Japan, so it’s a ball of sticky mochi rice full of candy pink bean paste.

These three needs to be sufficient to tide us over till the remainder of the lineup debuts on March 3, when the Chewy Japanese (“Mocchiri Wa”) Sakura Strawberry Crepe (281 yen) reveals up…

…together with the Uji Matcha Strawberry Daifuku (281 yen), a pillowy comfortable mochi dumpling full of matcha and a strawberry at its middle.
