[Tokoname Milk Ice Cream (Spout Type)] BAITEN

Cool menu: Tokoname milk ice cream (spout type)

This one-handed ice cream is made with Tokoname Milk, a long-established local milk manufacturer, and is characterized by its mellow sweetness and refreshing taste. It is rich and full of milkiness, and you will be hooked once you try it. Since it is a one-handed ice cream, it is also recommended for cooling down a hot body during a stroll along the pottery path in the summer!

BAITEN (Tokoname Milk Stand)

A small hut on Kurefu Tsuchiya Street on the Yakimono Sanpo (Ceramics Walk). The building retains a nostalgic atmosphere on the site of what was originally a clay pipe factory, and next door is a kiln where the clay pipes were actually fired. Tokoname Milk, which was founded in 1926 in the Sanwa district of Tokoname under the name Sanwa Milk, was created with the hope that people would "drink milk and become healthy." The logo, which features a child in the middle of three circles, represents the company name and the hope that children will drink milk and become healthy. Currently, about 70% of the milk produced is made for school lunches and is consumed in elementary and junior high schools in Tokoname, Obu, and Chita. Please enjoy Tokoname Milk, which is so popular that everyone on the Chita Peninsula knows about it.
