At Shonan Fruit Craft Kamakura, operated by craft jam maker Shonan JAM'S, we offer shaved ice using ice from the natural ice brewery 'Yatsuyoshi' in Yamanashi. We deliver a special bowl that combines melting natural ice with homemade seasonal jam syrups.
Jam sauces made by carefully processing fresh fruit are a deliciousness only Shonan Fruit Craft can achieve!
**Shonan Gold and Lemon Shaved Ice**
1,331 yen (tax included)
The syrup combining Shonan Gold and lemon features a gentle acidity and refreshing crispness, characterized by an elegant citrus flavor. It is poured generously over fluffy natural ice to create a light yet deep flavor. Inside the ice, soft-serve ice cream is hidden, creating a three-layer structure with condensed milk and Shonan Gold & lemon syrup. You can enjoy the change in taste as you eat. Topped with light espuma cream and homemade jam.
**Strawberry Milk Shaved Ice**
1,331 yen (tax included)
The classic Strawberry Milk. The homemade strawberry jam syrup spreads fruit sweetness and moderate acidity, pairing perfectly with condensed milk. Soft-serve ice cream is hidden inside to further enhance the strawberry flavor with the richness of milk. Topped with light espuma cream and strawberry jam.
**Blueberry Yogurt Shaved Ice**
1,331 yen (tax included)
A refreshing taste with the acidity of yogurt and the gentle sweetness of blueberry. Yogurt-condensed milk and homemade blueberry jam syrup are layered for a light yet rich balance. Soft-serve ice cream is hidden inside the fluffy ice. Topped with light espuma cream and blueberry jam.
Shonan Fruit Craft makes health-conscious jams using seasonal fruits like Shonan Gold. The special jam syrups made by a company that uses no white sugar, preservatives, or additives pair perfectly with natural ice from 'Yatsuyoshi.'
**The Crisis of Natural Ice Brought by Global Warming and Its Deliciousness**
Due to global warming, winter cold has become unstable, making natural ice production more difficult each year. Natural ice made by relying on the power of nature is becoming increasingly rare. Especially in the 2025-2026 season, it is said to be a year of bad harvest due to drastic temperature differences and unstable weather. While general ice may feel somewhat lacking, natural ice not only has a soft melt-in-your-mouth texture but also mellows the taste of the syrup, transforming it into an exceptional deliciousness. We want as many people as possible to taste this rare natural ice.
**Comment from Norihisa Moriya, CEO of Shonan JAM'S:**
'Natural ice is a blessing of nature itself. We heard that this year was particularly difficult for production. We are grateful to receive this precious ice and want to offer it as shaved ice that maximizes its charm.'
