A Sweet Collaboration Takes Miniature Form
The new collection miniaturizes the popular collaboration doughnuts from “Ikumimama’s Animal Doughnuts,” renowned for their handmade, animal-themed treats made with natural ingredients. Each charm meticulously captures the essence of both the iconic Sanrio characters and the delectable doughnuts.
The lineup features five distinct characters, presented in two charming doughnut shapes:
-
Doughnut-hole style: Hello Kitty and Pompompurin, cleverly utilizing the doughnut’s central opening.
-
Round, plump style: Cinnamoroll, My Melody, and Kuromi, embracing their endearing, rounded forms.
Each character’s unique expression and signature features are faithfully recreated, with special attention to detail, such as the three-dimensional ears that stand out, adding to their playful charm. Even the subtle drips of chocolate on the back of the doughnuts are intricately designed, making them look almost good enough to eat—a testament to the craftsmanship, allowing collectors to compare them to the real thing.
To enhance the authentic experience, each charm comes with a mini shopper bag, a perfect replica of the paper bags used at Ikumimama’s stores. Placing a charm inside the mini bag allows for a playful re-enactment of purchasing a miniature doughnut.
Connect and Collect: Endless Kawaii Possibilities
The charms are designed for interactivity, featuring a crab clasp on the top and a ring-shaped fitting on the bottom. This allows multiple charms to be connected vertically, creating a delightful chain that can adorn pouches, bags, or keys. Imagine a dangling string of your favorite Sanrio characters, each a tiny, delicious-looking doughnut! This connectable feature adds an extra layer of fun for collectors.
