Sponsored by The Tourism Association of Central Region in Fukushima Prefecture<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Koriyama city is located in central Fukushima Prefecture. Because of its convenient location, and because both the Tohoku and Banetsu Highways and the Shinkansen run through the city, it acts as the commercial capital of Fukushima Prefecture, drawing visitors from many different prefectures to the city center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Located very close to Koriyama City is a small town called Ono. This town is especially well known for its local dessert, the \u201cIce Burger,” which fuses warm burger buns and various flavors of ice cream into one tasty sweet. I recently had the opportunity to try the specialty myself, and was pleasantly surprised by the combination of savory and sweet flavors that are incorporated into this unique dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This specialty has been a local sweet in Onomachi for over thirty years, and is loved by the locals in the surrounding areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Ice Burger is quite simple in it\u2019s design. A scoop of vanilla ice cream is cradled inside a savory heated bun, and topped with nuts, and flavored syrup. There are two flavors that are offered year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chocolate:<\/span> <\/strong>The bun is a chocolate flavored heated bun, and the vanilla ice cream is topped with chocolate syrup and crushed almonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Blueberry:<\/span><\/strong> This is a plain flavored bun, and the vanilla ice cream is topped with blueberry syrup and shaved almonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are also seasonal specialties available depending on the time of year. When I had the opportunity to visit, the two seasonal flavors were Orange Tomato (the vanilla ice cream was topped with an orange tomato syrup), and Chocolate Banana (vanilla ice cream topped with a banana syrup.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n The syrups are specially made with local ingredients and each store location offers different flavors to try out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One bite and you\u2019ll fall in love. The crunchy texture of the nuts mixed with the cold ice cream and the warm bun set off a multitude of senses. The bun is just savory enough to add some contrast to the sweetness of the syrup and the ice cream, while also complementing the sweetness perfectly. If you are an ice cream connoisseur, be sure to check out this local dessert and give the seasonal specials a try!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
