I want to try this! If only it could be shipped outside of Japan… might just have to be a bucket list item if I ever go to Japan

Ah, the spoiler[Human-Human Fruit Model: Sun God Nika.]. What a fine fruit. I hope it tastes as revolting as devil fruits are in-universe.

I'm not even a One Piece fan and I want to order one of those Melon Cakes.

Bet you sweet money it's only available for a limited time.

According to the website they have sold over 30,000 cakes. Also the top part is not edible but the outer purple layer is plastic chocolate, which they say is edible but not recommended. I kind of figured since in the video shown they left the outer shell alone.

Even if Japan opened up in June like they plan to in limited numbers you can't walk in and buy one. It's a mail order service only and the lead time is about 5-7 days minimum. Guess on my next trip won't be able to get one.

I like being able to swim too much to take any chances... but neat idea though.

Does it really taste good, that is the real question.

It probably wouldn't hold out too well being shipped outside Japan unless they shipped it with international next day service.
