[Limited Time Offer] Too cute to drink! Wild bird latte art and icing cookies

The soft light of newly sprouted leaves filters through the shores of Kera Pond. How about a refreshing drink to take a break during your stroll? Ikaru Cafe, located next to Picchio, has prepared a special menu available only this spring.

Wild bird latte art

Latte art featuring birds representative of Karuizawa.
In particular, the design featuring the blue bird "Siberian Blue Robin," which is said to bring happiness, is available for a limited time only during this season.
In addition, you can enjoy seeing other birds such as the charming Japanese Grosbeak, the forest drummer Great Spotted Woodpecker, and the familiar idol Great Tit. It's a surprise which bird you'll encounter at the time.
Why not experience an encounter with the inhabitants of the forest in the comfort of a single cup?

The cookies, vividly depicting the Blue-and-white Flycatcher and the Narcissus Flycatcher, are so beautifully made you almost hesitant to eat them. They're perfect for enjoying with a latte, and also make a lovely little souvenir of a spring visit to Karuizawa.
