Limited 200 Sets of 'GELABO × VALX PROTEIN GELATO' Produced by Former Takarazuka Revue Star Hikaru Akinon Sold Out

STLogue Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representatives: Hisao Sakamoto and Ittou Tanashi, hereinafter "Sentlogue") announces that "GELABO × VALX PROTEIN GELATO," produced by Hikaru Akinon, a former Takarazuka Revue member active as an actor and instructor, has received enthusiastic support from customers and sold out its limited 200 sets.

GELABO × VALX PROTEIN GELATO

This product is a protein-enriched gelato jointly developed by GELATERIA GELABO, a premium gelato brand known for its high-quality ingredients, and VALX, a high-performance protein brand. It successfully combines great taste with high nutritional value.

The idea originated from Hikaru Akinon’s personal desire: "I’d love to enjoy my favorite ice cream while naturally consuming protein." As someone dedicated to fitness and body conditioning, Akinon insisted on excellence not only in nutrition but also in authentic gelato flavor, going through multiple rounds of prototyping to perfect the recipe.

By combining the artisanal gelato-making techniques of Hokkaido-based specialty shop GELATERIA GELABO with VALX’s expertise in protein formulation, this innovative product delivers both the indulgent satisfaction of dessert and high protein content.

Following its release, the product generated significant buzz on social media, with customers praising it as a "guilt-free treat" and "delicious beyond expectations for a protein product." The limited run of 200 sets sold out within 12 days of launch.

Comment from Hikaru Akinon

"Thank you so much to everyone who purchased our product.

I was involved in this product development with the hope of creating a dessert that uplifts both mind and body. Thanks to your support, we sold out within 12 days, and I am deeply grateful. If this product brought even a little joy to your daily lives, I am truly happy.

Moving forward, I will continue to make proposals that prioritize beauty, health, and deliciousness, aiming to bring happiness to everyone."

Comment from En Kurusu, President & CEO of Enkuru Co., Ltd.

"Leveraging the technical expertise we’ve cultivated as a gelato specialty store, we challenged ourselves to create a product that makes protein enjoyable.

We are delighted that this limited edition of 200 sets has sold out, receiving strong support from customers. The heartfelt feedback from those who’ve tried it has been a great encouragement to us.

Going forward, we will continue developing products that deliver both quality ingredients and enjoyable experiences."

Comment from Masayuki Tadai, President & CEO of VALX Inc.

Through our collaboration with Ms. Akinon and GELABO, we are thrilled to have introduced a new protein experience to many people.
