The lineup includes the ‘Otsukimi Pudding Crepe’, ‘Otsukimi Roll Cake’, a teriyaki burger featuring a fried egg designed to resemble a full moon, ‘Otsukimi Zenzai’ with white whipped cream and mochi, and a large custard whip daifuku.
Additionally, the ‘Seven Cafe Bakery’ line is introducing an autumn-themed sweet potato cookie.

These items are being released to meet seasonal consumer demand.
