NISHIKIYA KITCHEN Expands Kids Series with New Flavors

In a bid to support families in creating convenient and nutritious meals for their little ones, NISHIKIYA KITCHEN, a renowned specialist in retort foods, is expanding its popular "Kids Series" with six new additions, bringing the total to an impressive 28 selections. Set to debut on September 24, 2025, these new offerings include five types of "Kids Nabe" (hot pot) and one delightful snack, providing parents with a variety of choices for their children’s meals.

The cornerstone of NISHIKIYA KITCHEN's philosophy is their mission to make global cuisine easy and accessible. Their tagline, "Cooking the world’s flavors made simple," resonates well with busy parents looking for tasty yet nutritious options for their children. The launch is particularly significant, as the previously released series has already sold over 760,000 servings within a year of its revitalization in March 2024.

The new Kids Series products are designed to cater to children as young as one year old, with carefully crafted meals ensuring that even the fussiest of eaters will enjoy a balanced nutrition of vegetables, meats, and best of all, flavor!

Expanding the Kids Nabe Series

Among the stars of this new lineup is the "Kids Nabe" series, conceived to make vegetables and protein delicious and appealing to young taste buds. With five flavors available, parents can warm them up directly or get creative by transferring the contents over rice to create a satisfying porridge-like dish or by pairing with udon noodles for a comforting soup. The aim is to offer multiple enjoyable eating experiences, keeping the kids engaged and excited about their meals.
