Kimuraya Sohonten Introduces Summer Delights

On May 1, 2026, Kimuraya Sohonten, based in Koto City, Tokyo, will launch a fresh lineup of seven seasonal products, inviting customers to savor the essence of early summer. This new collection features a delightful combination of rich flavors and refreshing textures, showcasing the brand's commitment to quality and innovation.

New Product Highlights

Milk Bean Bun

The standout item in this new lineup is the Milk Bean Bun, a delicious treat filled with a luxurious milk bean paste. This filling, made using Hokkaido’s rich sweetened condensed milk, is enveloped in a soft dough that incorporates sake yeast. Finished with a topping of this creamy filling, each bun is priced at 168 yen (tax included).
Kimuraya takes pride in its meticulous process; they enhance white bean paste by blending in sweetened condensed milk and butter, resulting in a comforting, milky flavor that warms the heart.

Jumbo Steamed Cake – Salt Caramel

Next is the Jumbo Steamed Cake – Salt Caramel. This moist and fluffy cake is infused with a sweet and savory flavor profile that leaves a clean finish. By using France’s delicious Lorraine salt, Kimuraya adds just the right amount of saltiness, making this delightful cake a great option for the warmer days. It also comes at 168 yen (tax included).
With a milky caramel sauce complemented by a secret touch of caramel, the taste is light and enjoyable for summer.

Jumbo Steamed Cake – Crown Melon

The Jumbo Steamed Cake – Crown Melon brings summer’s freshness to the forefront. Made with puree from Shizuoka’s crown melons, each bite offers a burst of refreshingly sweet flavor. Available for 168 yen (tax included), this cake promises a savory-sweet experience perfect for the season.
