New convenience store sweets appear all the time and keeping up with them can be a full time job. So, this week in Konbini Watch, let¡¯s turn the spotlight onto a few assorted highlights that shouldn¡¯t be missed.
Earlier this month, Ministop debuted a new melon parfait across the Kyushu, Shikoku and Kinki regions, and the treat (?380 after tax) offers a refreshing change of pace from a season dominated by strawberries. The chunks of melon are supplemented by a nice portion of vanilla soft serve and additional melon sauce.
For those wishing for something less fruity, Lawson¡¯s cheesecake dessert (?215 after tax) delivers a more savory taste mimicking the various trendy cheesecake offerings found in places such as Harajuku and Daikanyama.
For those who can¡¯t settle on one flavor, opt for FamilyMart¡¯s new pie cornets. Each pack (?150 after tax) offers a milk and strawberry take, wrapped up in a fluffy exterior.
