【Ginza Café Reopens on Jun 29】Chill Out with a Sensory Cocoa Dessert Experience

LITTLE MOTHERHOUSE, a food brand with the mission of 'Sharing the potential of food from developing countries with the world,' will launch a new series called 'IRODORI CACAO GELATO' to coincide with the store's renovation and reopening on Monday, June 29, 2026, at the LITTLE MOTHERHOUSE CHOCOLATE FACTORY SHOP (Ginza).

The new lineup features six varieties in total: four types that combine cocoa-based gelato with carefully selected ingredients and are finished with powders to create 'flavor and color gradients,' plus two types designed to deliver the pure, direct taste of cocoa. We invite you to enjoy these luxurious, refreshing desserts with all five senses in the newly refined space.

IRODORI CACAO GELATO Product Lineup

These innovative gelatos are visually stunning and offer surprising new flavor pairings of cocoa and premium ingredients. Made without milk, they use a proprietary plant-based milk created by emulsifying cocoa butter and water, which enhances the natural aroma and flavor of cocoa. Choose between 'Single' and 'Double' sizes to suit your mood.

【Four Varieties in the 'Irodori Series'—Enjoy Luxurious Gradients】

Matcha × Matcha

Made with premium 'Hon Yama Matcha' from Shizuoka Prefecture. This gelato blends the tea's refreshing aroma, refined umami, and clean finish into a cocoa base, then generously topped with additional matcha powder. Savor the rich, characteristic fragrance of matcha and its harmonious balance with the gelato's sweetness.

【Two Varieties in the 'Origin Series'—Experience Cocoa's True Character】

These gelatos use high-quality cocoa carefully cultivated on Sulawesi Island, Indonesia, to express the cocoa's inherent potential in a straightforward way.

5. IRODORI CACAO GELATO Cocoa Milk

Gently captures the unique, rich aroma of cocoa—fruity, floral, and sometimes woody—into a smooth, creamy treat.

6. IRODORI CACAO GELATO Cocoa Mass

A premium gelato that delivers the direct taste of cocoa mass. Its prominent fruity aroma and deep, complex bitterness unfold pleasantly on the palate, finishing with a surprisingly clean aftertaste.
