As the summer heat continues to take its toll, Lotte is stepping up with an enticing trio of autumn-themed sweets poised to bring comfort and indulgence to our taste buds. Set to debut on August 18, 2026, these new products are designed to be the perfect remedy for the lingering summer fatigue, offering a refreshing experience that hints at the flavors of fall.

Introducing the Premium Series

Lotte is expanding their cherished chocolate pie brand with two exciting flavors: Chocolate Pie Premium Anno Sweet Potato and Chocolate Pie Premium Kasama Chestnut. Additionally, the Premium Ghana Mont Blanc Chocolat featuring Japanese chestnut will grace the shelves, each crafted with carefully selected ingredients, ensuring quality and taste.

Chocolate Pie Premium Anno Sweet Potato

A standout in this lineup is the Chocolate Pie Premium Anno Sweet Potato. This delightful treat includes authentic Anno sweet potato in both the cake and cream filling, encapsulating the essence of the ingredient's rich, creamy sweetness. With 1.3% Anno sweet potato content, it promises a true taste of fall. Each pie is sold individually and is expected to retail around 151 yen, making it an affordable luxury.

Chocolate Pie Premium Kasama Chestnut

Next up is the Chocolate Pie Premium Kasama Chestnut. Utilizing rich Kasama chestnuts from Ibaraki Prefecture, this pie includes an exclusive chestnut sauce and cream, all wrapped in white chocolate. To elevate the chestnut flavor, a dash of brown sugar is added to the cake base, achieving a beautiful blend of tastes. With 1.1% chestnut and 0.5% brown sugar, this product reflects care in its creation, also priced at an anticipated 151 yen.

Premium Ghana Mont Blanc Chocolat

Lastly, the Premium Ghana Mont Blanc Chocolat featuring Japanese sweet chestnuts is a heavyweight contender among these new offerings. It showcases the delightful aroma and fluffy texture of Kumamoto's Japanese chestnut, enveloped in light Mont Blanc chocolate. The soft whipped chocolate brings a creamy and airy quality, with a retail price expected at around 399 yen.

A Touch of Luxury

These offerings are not just desserts; they represent a small indulgence that 64.5% of respondents in a recent survey say they prefer when seeking a touch of luxury in their sweets. The idea behind these autumn treats is to let customers savor the flavors of the season, even as the summer heat persists.

The marketing teams involved in these products are keen to embrace the emotional connection that food creates. They aim to ensure that every bite offers a blend of joy and nostalgia, highlighting traditional flavors that resonate with many. As the chocolate pie brand marketing team stated, it’s a moment of luxury for everyone, celebrating the essence of sweet potato and chestnut.
