Awayuki Strawberry Dessert Festival

This wonderful collaboration is meant to introduce unique white strawberries, “Miyabi no Ichigo no Awayuki” from Ichigolus Co., Ltd. in Tamana City, Kumamoto Prefecture, to New York audiences.

Last year, Ichigolus collaborated with the popular New York shop, “Eileen’s Special Cheesecake,” and all 300 units of “Miyabi’s White Cheesecake” sold out to a wildly appreciative customer base. This year, to expand on this success, collaborative products will be released simultaneously at three acclaimed dessert shops in New York City. At the request of Ichigolus CEO Tatsunori Morikawa, Resobox conceptualized this collaboration and worked with each shop to make it a reality.

The items will be available for purchase at each respective shop starting March 25th, and sales will continue until the items sell out. Supplies are limited, so hurry if you want to try them all!

From Burrow, the Awayuki Tart:

The tart is based on the owner’s favorite tart from a Western-style pastry shop in her rural neighborhood when she was a child. The ingredients are simple: a cookie coated with chocolate, cream, and strawberries.

From Lysée, the Strawberry Charlotte:

A masterpiece featuring strawberry-lime compote and vanilla cream wrapped in ladyfingers, topped with Awayuki strawberry. The pale color scheme makes it a beautiful cake that brings to mind the coming of spring.

From ChikaLicious Dessert Bar, the Japanese White Strawberry in Rosemary Syrup with Creme Fraiche Sorbet and Rosemary Puff:

Chika Tillman praised the Awayuki Strawberry, saying it had not only a vibrant appearance but also a wonderful aroma and a bursting flavor. She combined it with rosemary syrup and topped it with a refreshing sorbet. The paired drink is the elegant and sweet French white wine “Muscat de Beaumes de Venise 2021.”

Each shop has a limited quantity of their unique dessert, so inquire to ensure they’re not out when planning your strawberry celebration!
