Snacks & Sweets (41–50)
Oiri ice cream
Oiri is a traditional sweet from the Nishisanuki region of Kagawa and Ehime.
It’s a light confection that melts away in your mouth, and its bright colors make it very photogenic.
How about trying oiri as a topping on ice cream or soft serve? Even if people think regular ice cream is fine, the cuteness of this look will surely make everyone want to buy it!
Hojicha sweets
While many sweets made with matcha are quite sweet, those made with hojicha tend to be less sweet and have a toasty aroma, making them popular with everyone from young women to older adults.
How about trying a latte made with hojicha? Steep hojicha in milk and top it with foamed milk.
It’s like a Japanese-style chai and it’s delicious.
cupcake
By simply changing the cream, fruit, and decorations you put on plain cupcakes, you can offer many different variations.
Their cute appearance makes them very photogenic, so it seems like this could quickly become a very popular festival stall.
Ice tongue flu
https://www.tiktok.com/@kitchen_kanakana/video/7381391861664976146Ice-tan Furu is a fun festival-stall menu that showcases the colors and shapes of fruit.
Skewer your favorite fruits—like strawberries, grapes, and kiwis—and freeze them as they are.
Once frozen, give them a quick dip in ice water to lightly chill the surface, enhancing the refreshing sensation the moment you bite in.
The combination of a clear ice coating and the fruits’ vivid colors makes them irresistibly photogenic.
Adding a ribbon to the skewer or serving them in cups also gives a special touch.
The process is simple and requires minimal equipment, making it a great choice for your first food stall.
At a school festival in hot weather, this sweet treat will stand out as a cool, refreshing offering.
sweet potato
How about serving sweet potatoes, a dessert that remains consistently popular? If you prepare them the usual way, you have to start by steaming the sweet potatoes, then make the mixture and shape it.
But if you keep some of the frozen products that have come out in recent years, all you need to do is thaw them.
Some are even sold pre-cut into bite-sized pieces.
You could stick toothpicks in them and offer them at a low price.
Since they’re inexpensive, they’re also easy to serve alongside other items.
strawberry candy
Strawberry candy is a sweet that’s popular among young people, and you often see it on social media.
Simply put, it’s the strawberry version of a candied apple, but it’s smaller, easier to eat, and perfect for snacking on the go.
Put store-bought amber candy (golden barley sugar) and water into a heatproof container and heat it up; once it melts, coat strawberries that you’ve skewered on sticks.
Finally, chill to set, and it’s done! If you skewer several strawberries on a stick like yakitori, just holding it looks cute and it’s likely to be a hit with women and children.
Jar Sweets | Fruit Jelly
How about making fruit jelly in jars that looks cute and really stands out in photos? Not only is it photogenic and adorable, but you can prep it the day before and just serve it on the day, which helps avoid last-minute mishaps at the stall—another big plus.
Sterilize the jars by boiling, pack them with plenty of cut fruit, then heat water, agar, and sugar together.
Let it cool to about body temperature, pour it into the jars, and chill to set.
Use seasonal fruit or canned fruit to create a colorful finish.
