It's been one year since Patissier Pikachu, the pastry chef who loves making sweets, joined Pikachu Sweets by Pokémon Café! To celebrate, on Saturday, April 23, Patissier Pikachu will be proudly presenting a selection of sweets and drinks! After that, more Patissier Pikachu goods will be coming soon! Huh? It seems that Electric-type Pokémon have been lured by Patissier Pikachu's Electric energy and have gathered together...?


The Electric-type Pokémon that came to play have been turned into waffles! Here comes "Pokéffle," a waffle made of crunchy dough and decorated with cute decorations! You can enjoy two different looks, one on the front and one on the back!

The Pokémon Plusle & Minun Pokéffle is Strawberry Chocolate flavor. Having Plusle & Minun energize you will make you full of energy! Morpeko, who is always hungry, comes in a rich chocolate flavor with both Full Belly Mode and Hangry Mode appearances.


In the plaza in front of the Pikachu Sweets store, there are Plusle & Minun figures! Take a walk around the plaza, take a picture with your Pokéffle, and post it on SNS with the hashtag "#Pokéffle Walk" (#ポケッフルさんぽ) to make memories!


The design of the standard menu "Get Latte" is also lively with Pikachu Sweet's Pikachu's and Electric-type Pokémon! The color of the latte art will be pink to match the Pikachu Sweets! New flavors "Tea Latte" and "White Mocha" that go perfectly with Pokèffles are also available! There are a total of six types of patterns. One of them is a very rare secret pattern. You cannot choose the type of pattern.


Order a set of "Pokéffle" and "Get Latte" and get an original Pikachu Sweets sticker! Be sure to get one to commemorate the first anniversary of the arrival of Patissier Pikachu. *The stickers will be available for a limited time until they run out.


This sweet drink is filled with Patissier Pikachu's specialties, who loves making sweets. If you carry it around with the separately sold sleeve, which will go on sale on April 29th, 2022, you will feel like you are on a trip with Patissier Pikachu!


On Friday, April 29th, 2022, in addition to the sleeve, a plush toy and a mascot will join the party! Take it home with your menu and enjoy Pikachu Sweets at home. One drink sleeve can be purchased with each drink order.


Pikachu and its friends pop out of the baumkuchen! Please spend your sweet time with Pikachu and its friends while enjoying the soft and moist baumkuchen.


Pikachu Sweets popular mousse is back on the menu! Gokulin and Numera have brought their friend Urimoo. The artwork that looks exactly like the menu that is hidden throughout the restaurant, so keep your eyes peeled!
