Japanese Sweets Starring Rilakkuma & Kiiroitori with Cherry Blossoms!

If you're looking for some company when you enjoy a spot of cherry blossom viewing this spring, Rilakkuma and Kiiroitori are the perfect cherry blossom buddies! Bandai's candy division has added cherry blossom-themed Japanese sweets inspired by the incredibly popular Rilakkuma and Kiiroitori to its Tabemas collection. These charming sweets are available for purchase at Lawson stores across Japan (excluding Okinawa) from Tuesday, March 14.

Each pack of Tabemas Sakura Rilakkuma fresh Japanese sweets contains two sweets: Rilakkuma (custard pudding flavor) and Kiiroitori (yuzu flavor). Bandai's Tabemas sweets take their name from taberareru mascot, meaning "edible mascot," and Rilakkuma and Kiiroitori look cuter than ever in their edible mascot forms! Using elaborate techniques, Rilakkuma's adorable face and Kiiroitori's beady eyes have been captured wonderfully in Japanese confectionery, creating sweets that are almost too cute to eat. The theme of these sweets is "cherry blossoms," and their designs are filled with the joys of spring. Rilakkuma is striking an endearing pose while holding a cherry blossom, and a dainty flower has landed on Kiiroitori's head! The sweet bean jam filling is different for each design - Rilakkuma features a custard pudding flavor filling while Kiiroitori features a yuzu flavor filling. The delicate taste and moist texture that you'd expect from Japanese confectionery makes these sweets extra magical.
