Roots Co., Ltd. opened an “ichigo”(strawberry) “daifuku” (a soft round rice cake stuffed with sweet bean-jam) specialized shop which will sell this sweets item produced with their affiliated farms throughout Japan and the strawberries they use are directly sent from various production areas.
The harmony of the straberries’ sourness, bean-jam’s sweetness and the chewy rice cake, is excellent!
The new store was opened in response to requests from customers who purchased the ichigo daifuku of “Taiyaki Kanda Daruma Akihabara Store” run by Roots. Five varieties using strawberries produced in Japan will be sold throughout the year.
Tsubuan (coarse red bean-jam) – 250 yen (tax included)
Koshian (strained bean-jam) – 250 yen (tax included)
Rennyu An (condensed milk and bean-jam) – 270 yen (tax included)
Matcha An – 270 yen (tax included)
Cream iri Tsubuan – 270 yen (tax included)
Let’s enjoy “Ichigo An’s” ichigo daifuku which is sold throughout the year.

The scenic Hoshino Resort Risonare Atami in Shizuoka Prefecture, known for its spectacular views and hot springs, will begin hosting Night Strawberry Tours, inviting couples to pick strawberries in an illuminated greenhouse from January 6 until March 30, 2023. The event is only available on even-numbered days, and only one couple per day can participate. Beni Hoppe Strawberries are a specialty of the area, and this is the 10th event of its kind. Fittingly, guests can enjoy their strawberries with 10 unique condiments.
Enjoy Fresh Strawberries with 10 Condiments
Guests can enjoy ten unique condiments with their strawberries, including condensed milk, mascarpone, and pistachio. When the mild flavor of condensed milk is combined with savory pistachios, the fresh, full-bodied sweetness of the Beni Hoppe strawberries reaches a new level. Visitors are welcome to ask the staff for the best combinations, or are welcome to experiment themselves! Pick Strawberries at Night in a Private, Shimmering Greenhouse
After dinner, guests will leave the hotel to begin the Night Strawberry Tour. A red carpet is laid out in the illuminated greenhouse, and those taking part in the tour will enjoy strawberry picking as they sip a glass of rose champagne. See how Strawberries are Cultivated
Beni Hoppe strawberries are made by combining the Akihime and Sachinoka varieties. In Japanese, the name means red cheeks, and the name was inspired by the Japanese term hoppe ga ochiru*, meaning “my cheeks are falling off.” This is often used to describe food that’s extremely flavorful. These particular strawberries are award-winning, so visitors won’t want to miss this exclusive experience! *See Shizuoka Prefecture's official website for more information. Information
