Introducing Milk Cream
Hello, this is Gussan, writer for Saru-Kuma.
Today, I’m excited to introduce Milk Cream (Mirukuriimu),
a charming little soft serve shop located in Futa, Nishihara Village, Aso District, Kumamoto Prefecture.
This delightful soft serve shop opened its doors on July 16, 2022.
Just a stone’s throw away, you’ll also find Yosuga Pan, another lovely bakery that opened in the same month.
“What is this?!” โ the kind of quirky scene that makes you want to snap a photo and share it instantly!
Milk Cream is tucked between a beauty salon and a barbershop โ quite the unique location.
There’s a spacious gravel parking lot right out front, making it easy to stop by.
Soft serve is priced at 380 yen.
You can choose between a cone or a cup.
Toppings like caramel, salted caramel, or chocolate are available for an additional 50 yen.
The menu also features:
โ
Nuts & Soft Serve
Pistachio Caramel โ 480 yen
Almond Chocolate โ 480 yen
โ
Cafe Drinks
Iced Coffee โ 300 yen
Hot Coffee โ 250 yen
Coffee Float โ 450 yen
and more.
On the day of our visit, there was a limited-time Blueberry Soft Serve available for 480 yen.
Milk Cream’s Recommended Menu
This time, my kids picked one cup and one cone to share between them.
The cone is a delightful waffle cone (a personal favorite!), and the cup comes with a charming wooden spoon.
Photographing soft serve is always a race against time!
I managed to snap this shot in one take, but the moment I handed it to my child:
“Mom! It’s dripping everywhere!”
“My hands! My clothes!” โ chaos erupted in the back seat. Ha!
With the help of my friend in the passenger seat, we passed back wet wipes and plastic bags,
turning the whole experience into a lively and memorable moment.

And here’s the Coffee Float.
Milk Cream’s soft serve has the rich, natural flavor of fresh milk โ incredibly creamy and milky in the best way possible.
Both my kids and I absolutely loved it.
Located right along Nishihara Village’s main road, it’s the perfect pit stop on your way to or from the Mt. Aso area.
Don’t forget to also drop by the nearby Yosuga Pan bakery for a complete tasting tour.
