It's blue, but it's a Baumkuchen! It's a Baumkuchen, but it's blue! What's more, the chocolate mint flavored Baumkuchen "Blue Mt. Fuji Baumkuchen" will be released on Tuesday, October 17, 2023 as the seventh installment of the "Blue Mt. Fuji" series!

"Fujisan Products" is a business entity based in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, that plans, develops, and sells various products, foods, souvenirs, menus, and businesses related to Mt. Fuji. They have started selling the seventh new product in the series related to Mt. Fuji, the "Blue Mt. Fuji Baumkuchen."

This new product recreates a more realistic Mount Fuji in 3D, faithfully recreating everything from the color of the mountain's surface to the snow covering the mountain.

Most baumkuchen are pale yellow or brown on the outside and across the surface, but the "Blue Mt. Fuji Baumkuchen" is a beautiful blue color, true to its name. The snowy parts of Mt. Fuji are made with white chocolate. The mint flavor is complemented by the dark chocolate cacao, and when chilled, it becomes a chocolate mint flavored baumkuchen with an even more refreshing taste.

Developing a series of products with Mt. Fuji motifs, including the "Blue Mt. Fuji Curry Bread," which has sparked a lot of reactions such as "Is it soda flavored?" and "Is it sweet?"

The "Blue Mt. Fuji" series was born from the desire to widely convey the charms of Mt. Fuji, one of Japan's most iconic mountains. Unique products with a Mt. Fuji motif are being released one after another.

Among them, the "Blue Mt. Fuji Curry Bread" has been met with a series of surprised comments, such as "Is it soda flavored?" and "Is it sweet?". It is still a hot topic on social media, with people saying it "looks great."

They also focus on drinks and sweets, exporting "Blue Fujisan Cream Soda," "Blue Fujisan Beer," "Blue Fujisan Craft Cola," and "Blue Fujisan Chocolate Crunch" overseas. Due to their popularity, they have now developed "Blue Fujisan Baumkuchen."

The snowy parts of Mt. Fuji are made with white chocolate, and the freshness of the chocolate mint is enhanced when chilled.

Fujisan Products has so far developed and released six types of blue Fujisan series products.

There are two important definitions for the products we plan and develop for Mt. Fuji Products. Firstly, we create products that can express Mt. Fuji in 3D, not in 2D flatness. We place importance on faithfully reproducing the truncated cone shape of Mt. Fuji. Secondly, we try to express the white of the snow that covers Mt. Fuji and the blue of the mountain surface, which are important colors in faithfully reproducing Mt. Fuji.

Meanwhile, the seventh in the Blue Mt. Fuji series, "Blue Mt. Fuji Baumkuchen," faithfully reproduces Mt. Fuji through the shape and color of baumkuchen.

Most Baumkuchen are yellow or brown, but by using advanced techniques and carefully selected ingredients, they have succeeded in producing a beautiful blue color. Not only the outer surface of the mountain, but even the cut surface is a vivid blue color. The snowy parts of Mt. Fuji are made with white chocolate. You can enjoy the beautiful and realistic appearance of Mt. Fuji.

As with the previous series, we wanted to defy expectations in a good way, so we made many prototypes and finally arrived at the answer: "chocolate mint flavor." It is an extremely rare flavor for a Baumkuchen. The mint flavor is complemented by the aroma of dark chocolate cocoa, and we recommend eating it chilled. The refreshing taste of the chocolate mint is enhanced, making it even more delicious. Furthermore, the Baumkuchen uses domestic white peach juice, which gives the chocolate mint a subtle peach flavor and sweetness as a secret ingredient.

This is a new Baumkuchen that has been all the rage recently and is highly recommended for chocolate mint lovers, or "Chocolate Mint Party."
