Pikachu Shortcake Sandwich set to be Tokyo’s newest photogenic treat for Pokémon Trainers

Pokémon’s 30th birthday is being celebrated with unique treats at Pikachu Sweets by Pokémon Cafe in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro. The cafe is set to offer a Pikachu Shortcake Sandwich, a creation made of two Pikachu-shaped shortcake slices with whipped cream and strawberries in between. This sandwich can be enjoyed without hands, thanks to a paper holder that keeps the cake securely in place.

Alongside the sandwich, the cafe will serve an Eevee Chocolate Frappe, featuring an Eevee cookie and a whipped cream swirl that mimics the Pokémon’s coat. Customers can also receive a 30th anniversary sticker with a Pikachu wearing a cafe uniform when purchasing either of these items. The Pikachu Shortcake Sandwich and Eevee Frappe will be available from November 5 until December 31, priced at 1,200 yen (US$7.60).

Due to the whipped cream, the sandwich must be consumed promptly after purchase, as the cafe does not provide cool packs.
