FamilyMart Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Takeo Kotani) will celebrate its 45th anniversary in September 2026. Based on five keywords that it has continuously worked on, the company will carry out activities under the slogan "Ichiban Challenge" (Number One Challenge). As part of its efforts to achieve "Ichiban Oishii" (Number One Delicious), FamilyMart will launch Lotte "Strawberry Shortcake Sandwich" for 249 yen (268 yen including tax) and Lotte "Waffle Cone Jumbo Cream Puff" for 323 yen (348 yen including tax), in collaboration with Ginza Cozy Corner Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President: Kazuhiko Shono), at approximately 16,400 FamilyMart stores nationwide starting Tuesday, March 31, 2026.

Two types of first-ever collaboration products with "Ginza Cozy Corner" are here!

Founded in Tokyo's Ginza in 1948, "Ginza Cozy Corner" is a popular Western confectionery store that currently operates approximately 400 stores, mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area. With a diverse product lineup including popular jumbo cream puffs, various types of cakes, baked goods, and chocolates, it has been loved by all generations for many years.

This time, as the first collaboration products with "Ginza Cozy Corner," the flavors of the immensely popular "Strawberry Shortcake" and "Jumbo Cream Puff (Whip&Custard)" have been recreated as ice cream.

The "Strawberry Shortcake Sandwich" aims to express the flavor of the store's No.1 popular product, "Strawberry Shortcake." It features a moist and soft cake dough, reminiscent of sponge cake, sandwiching a fluffy, light-textured whipped ice cream with a rich milky flavor. Inside, a ripe strawberry sauce made with strawberry puree is enclosed, offering a luxurious satisfaction akin to a shortcake, easily enjoyed as a cool, melt-in-your-mouth sandwich ice cream.

The "Waffle Cone Jumbo Cream Puff" is a luxurious two-tone swirl waffle cone ice cream inspired by the flavor of the store's signature product, "Jumbo Cream Puff (Whip&Custard)," which has sold over 900 million units in the series. It combines custard ice cream, which highlights the aroma of Madagascar vanilla beans and the richness of egg, with whipped ice cream, enhanced with vanilla extract, offering a light texture and a distinct milky richness.

Please take this opportunity to enjoy the taste as if you were eating popular sweets from "Ginza Cozy Corner."
