Exciting News from Maito: Red Melon Sauce Pudding is Here!

In a thrilling competition on social media, the new flavor "Maito's Smooth Pudding with Red Melon Sauce" narrowly missed victory but is now set to make its debut on July 7, 2025. This limited-time offering will be available in supermarkets and convenience stores nationwide across Japan.

The introduction of the "Red Melon Sauce" pudding comes after last year's fiercely contested battle between two fruit sauces: white peach and red melon.

The campaign inspired a remarkable turnout, gathering over 16,411 votes, highlighting the enthusiastic support from aficionados of Maito's offerings.

The new red melon variation includes approximately 20% red melon juice, which beautifully complements the rich, creamy texture of the pudding. Upon opening the green and melon-themed packaging, consumers will immediately be welcomed by the luscious fragrance of red melon. Known for its intense sweetness and robust aroma, the red melon flavor creates a perfect balance with the smooth pudding, offering a delightful indulgence in each spoonful.

This pudding, recognized for its creamy consistency and rich flavor, has consistently received praise across all age groups. The introduction of the red melon sauce is highly anticipated by pudding fans eager to experience this new taste sensation.
