Calipico (the Japanese name is Calpis, but in the U.S. it was renamed for obvious reasons) is a ubiquitous Japanese yogurt-flavored drink. By adding Calipico to soda, water, alcohol or ice you can create a variety of yummy drinks and desserts. Kyotofu has ingeniously created Calipico soymilk ice cream. It’s silky smooth, light and super refreshing! Paired with another of Kyotofu’s spectacular ice creams, Valrhona chocolate and kinako (toasted soy), the two make quite the dynamic duo. These flavors are certainly unique and a welcome change from the usual suspects.

These are not the pizzas you think of when you think, “I want a slice.” Great as snacks, these thin crust pizzas do not have tomato paste or cheese on them but are bakery style, to be eaten cold. The potato, mushroom and tomato are staples, and depending on the season there are zucchini and/or celery root. Just delicious!
