Pudding Expo Kobe 2026

Why You Should Visit

A free-admission pudding festival bringing mail-order puddings from across Japan to Daimaru Suma. Alongside a collection booth of around 50 varieties, look for live-made specialties such as the "flaming pudding" from Chocolatier Roman-tei (Chiba) and the pudding à la carte booth from Kawabe Ice Farm (Gifu). Held indoors, it's an easy stop on a rainy day and a fun outing for families and dessert lovers who enjoy tasting and comparing.
