Autumn's Sweet Beginnings at THE LIVELY Fukuoka

As the leaves turn and the air cools, there's no better way to celebrate the season than with the seasonal offerings at THE LIVELY Fukuoka Hakata. Starting September 2, 2025, the hotel's latest launch, a double cheesecake called Melty Pumpkin, invites guests to enjoy the bountiful flavors of autumn.

This autumn, the Magic Autumn Harvest initiative comes alive, promising an immersive experience that blends food and art—creating a unique harvest festival atmosphere exclusive to THE LIVELY Fukuoka. The café and bar will showcase innovative sweets and cocktails inspired by local media buzz, giving you a taste of the local culture.

Introducing the Melty Pumpkin Cheesecake

The star of the autumn menu is the Melty Pumpkin, a delectable double cheesecake that hasn’t just been designed to please your palate but also your eyes. This creation marries the creamy richness of Basque cheesecake with the smooth texture of rare cheese mousse.

The appearance of the cheesecake captures the essence of pumpkins, evoking images of fall treats. What might look like a pumpkin dessert is, in fact, a luxurious combination of flavors. The Melty Pumpkin features a layer of pumpkin paste blended with cinnamon and sour cream, alongside a layer made from purple sweet potato paste that provides a delightful richness. This striking dessert showcases an intricate play on textures, with the rare cheese mousse melting delicately on your tongue, followed by the comforting notes of pumpkin and sweet potato. Beneath it all, you'll discover an exquisite layer of Basque cheesecake, enriched further by a fruit sauce combining strawberries, blueberries, cranberries, and more—each element echoing the tastes of a rich autumn harvest.

Seasonal Cocktails to Savor

Moreover, two exclusive cocktails will also debut alongside the cheesecake, perfect for celebrating the season. The first, Grape and Muscat Pear Espuma Cocktail, is refreshingly fruity, capturing the essence of fresh autumn grapes combined with a pear espuma. The rich grape liqueur sets a bold base, while the pear foam adds a light, airy finish—it's a taste of fall in a glass, reminiscent of orange-hued autumn skies.

The second cocktail, Purple Sweet Potato and Vanilla Bitter Cocktail, is a visual and flavor masterpiece. This layered drink embodies the very spirit of autumn harvest, placing a base of rich purple sweet potato paste at the bottom, followed by vanilla ice cream and espresso as the bitter middle layer, topped with crushed chocolate to simulate the texture of soil. A side of sweet potato chips with chocolate sauce adds an interactive sweet and savory play to your sipping experience.

Both cocktails will be available for the same period as the dessert, ensuring your palate is delighted from every angle.
