HASHLE Launches Limited-Time Summer Fruit Waffles from May 16

Arai Shoji Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Hiratsuka, Kanagawa; President and Representative Director: Ryozo Arai) will launch summer fruit-themed waffles at HASHLE, its Belgian waffle and chocolate drink shop. As the first release, three limited-time items will go on sale from Saturday, May 16, 2026: one Liege waffle and two HASHLE waffles. The new products were developed around a fruit theme suited to summer. “Sugar Orange” is a Liege waffle made with dough using fermented butter from Hokkaido, baked with candied orange peel mixed in, and finished with icing sugar. “Lemon Citrus” is a HASHLE waffle combining cream made with the juice and peel of hand-picked Setouchi lemons, marmalade made generously with three citrus fruits, navel orange, grapefruit, and lemon, and a lemon chocolate topping. “Mango Fromage” is a HASHLE waffle filled and baked with cream rich in melt-in-your-mouth diced mango pulp, combined with mascarpone cream from Hokkaido. The waffles can be enjoyed as they are, or chilled at home for a moist and cool texture, offering a new flavor experience recommended for summer.
