On a hot summer day, seeing vibrant colors can instantly cool you down, and what could be better than seeing anedible blue Mt. Fuji? Leluwu Croquette Specialty Shop in Tainan has recently launched asummer-exclusive item: the blue Mt. Fuji and bubble pearls. Both visually and tastefully, they offer a refreshing escape from the scorching heat.

Both treats are actually made from agar, and the reason for using agar is that while Japan has many agar-based desserts, Taiwan has relatively few. The owner decided to use agar as the base for the desserts, then added food coloring to create vivid hues, giving the treats a soothing, healing quality.

▲ The combination of blue and white is incredibly soothing—the blue Mt. Fuji is unbearably cute.

Fuji, gradually covering the slopes with glistening white, showcasing its beauty.Bubble Pearlsare colorful bubbles made from agar in different flavors—yellow, blue, and red—added to a fizzy drink, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The layered combination of these three cooling treats gives the drink a unique style. The shop also handcrafts the packaging using traditional Japanese-style materials, ensuring every little detail reflects their care.
