PAPABUBBLE Celebrates AKB48's 20th Anniversary with Special Candy Launch

Celebrate a Milestone: PAPABUBBLE & AKB48

This year marks a significant milestone for AKB48 as they celebrate their 20th anniversary. To commemorate this incredible journey, PAPABUBBLE, renowned for its Craft Candy Theater, has teamed up with the iconic idol group to launch a special series of collaboration candies. Starting from October 15, these delightful treats will be available at Daimaru Tokyo, in the B1 Food Hoppe Town, but only for a limited time.

The candy range has been thoughtfully crafted in anticipation of the "AKB48 Grand Costume Exhibition - Traces That Colored The Era," which opens on October 17 at Daimaru Tokyo. This partnership allows fans to not only indulge in delicious candies but also celebrate the rich legacy of AKB48.

The Candy Designs: A Sweet Tribute

1. AKB48 Logo Candy
The iconic pink hue of the AKB48 logo is beautifully captured in a candy that reflects the warmth and nostalgia of the group's journey. With a flavor inspired by Nagano Serika's favorite cherry blossoms, this candy is a gentle reminder of the sweet moments over the past 20 years.

2. 20th Anniversary Costume Candy
Inspired by the vibrant design of AKB48's anniversary costume, this candy offers a pop of cherry cola flavor. The detail extends even to the '20' printed on the chest area, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship of PAPABUBBLE's artisans. Each bite is a cheerful ode to the celebratory spirit.

3. Heavy Rotation Costume Candy
Drawing inspiration from the popular song "Heavy Rotation," this candy embodies the fun and quirky image associated with the lyrics' popcorn theme. It's bright, bubbly, and bursting with flavor, perfect for fans who want to capture a taste of their favorite AKB48 hits.

4. Concert Costume Candy
In this collaboration, flavors reminiscent of Nagano's glow stick color—white—have been incorporated, delivering a refreshing and delicate taste. This candy perfectly symbolizes the fun and excitement of AKB48 concerts, leaving fans feeling both revitalized and satisfied.

Priced at ¥880, the AKB48 Shiawase Rika Collection captures an essence of joy and nostalgia, encouraging fans to cherish memories while creating new ones.
