Portable Soft Serve Machine Japanese Style

This Japanese Ice Cream is like your own portable soft serve machine :) . As you can tell by the photo it is a little flexi bag thingy full of soft serve ice cream that you squeeze out into a bowl or cone .. or even just squeeze and suck it out if you can’t wait.

This one is Lotte brand and was Red bean and vanilla flavour and I have seen a chocolate chip vanilla ice cream one as well.

Cute Little Japanese Ice Cream Truck

Not much to really say about this except isn’t it a great photo of a Japanese Ice Cream vendor. You see a fair few of these ice cream vans around the place and , usually, they have the best Japanese soft cream. I posted a different photo a while back of an Ice Cream bus.

I wish I had a nice Cherry Blossom soft cream right now!

Green Tea Ice With Red Bean and Ice Cream Only In Japan

Nice looking Japanese ice cream dessert found at a little cafe. This delicious looking thing is green tea ice, topped with nice sweetened red beans and then on top of all that a good scoop of vanilla ice cream.

It is a bit of a strange concoction, I am not that great a fan of shaved ice and ice cream together but many Japanese (and, I have heard, Hawaiians) are. For me the recipe of creamy ice cream and watery ice just doesn’t gel.
