* Behind the scenes of the product told by the developer! *
* ~Mini cup “Ayaimo ~ Honey Potato & Purple Potato” edition ~ * * ■I want to eat it in autumn! Brightly colored ice cream made with two types of sweet potatoes*
Among the sweet potatoes that make you feel the arrival of autumn, we focused on the combination of honey potatoes and purple potatoes, which have different tastes and appearances. “Mitsuimo ice cream” has a rich honey-like sweetness and a gentle sweetness.
“Purple sweet potato ice cream” is combined in a marble shape. You can enjoy the colorful appearance of yellow and purple and the deep deliciousness of sweet potatoes.
The product name uses the word “sai” to describe the bright color and depth of flavor that is created when two types of sweet potatoes meet.
* ★Special point 1.…Hot sweet potato ice cream with aroma and rich sweetness*
We used Beniharuka, a sweet potato variety that allows you to enjoy the deliciousness of honeyed potatoes. Beniharuka paste, which is baked to bring out the sweetness of the ingredients to the maximum, is mixed in to create a rich sweetness. By adding sweet potato honey*1, we create a moist roasted sweet potato with a honey-like taste and aroma.
*1: Sweet potato paste is made into honey by saccharifying it with malt. It is characterized by the rich flavor and sweetness of sweet potatoes.
* ★Special point 2.…Vividly colored and gently sweet purple sweet potato ice cream*
We used “Ayamurasaki”, which is a representative variety of purple sweet potato. This ice cream has a gentle sweetness and bright color, made by mixing purple sweet potato paste and bringing out the original flavor of the ingredients. Processed brown sugar*2 gives it a mellow and deep flavor.
*2: A product made by adding raw sugar and molasses derived from sugarcane to brown sugar.
