As a dedicated late-night ice cream shop open from 2:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., 21:00 Ice is a popular stop after work, after school, on dates, and as a sweet nightcap after drinks. Among its lineup, Peach & Panna Cotta stands out as a refreshing fruit sweet, pairing the natural sweetness of juicy peach with a smooth house-made panna cotta.
Here's a closer look at this colorful, refreshing cup.
The appeal of Peach & Panna Cotta begins with the gentle sweetness of peach that greets you from the first bite. Juicy, fresh peach pairs beautifully with the milky richness of the soft serve, and the natural sweetness of the fruit brings out the best in the milk — like enjoying a proper peach dessert plate.
Peach fans often say things like "I want to eat this all year round, not just in summer" or "it's refreshing, so it's perfect even after a meal" — a genuinely popular menu item.
What sets this dish apart is that the panna cotta is prepared by hand, one batch at a time, at the Chiba-Chūō Ekimae shop.
Making it in-house gives it a smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. It carries real milky richness without ever feeling heavy, finished with a gentle sweetness that lets the peach's freshness shine through. Enjoying the soft serve, peach, and panna cotta together lets each ingredient's character come through beautifully, and the combination never gets tiring, right to the very last spoonful.
Peach & Panna Cotta also includes nata de coco, prized for its pleasantly chewy, slightly bouncy texture.
The nata de coco is layered in two places — underneath the soft serve, and on top of the peach and panna cotta — so no matter where your spoon lands, you get that satisfying texture. Juicy peach, melting panna cotta, and springy nata de coco together create a wonderful mix of textures that keeps the cup interesting all the way through.
Peach & Panna Cotta is also loved for how beautiful it looks. The soft pink of the peach, the pure white of the soft serve and panna cotta, and the translucent nata de coco come together for a bright, refreshing presentation.
On dates and girls'-night-outs, it's common to hear "I want to take a photo before I eat this" — a genuinely popular, photogenic item on social media too.
Even among 21:00 Ice's many flavors, Peach & Panna Cotta stands out for how refreshing it is. Built on a rich soft serve base, the peach's bright sweetness and the panna cotta's light texture keep it from ever feeling heavy, even after a meal.
It's a great pick for anyone who says "I love fruit-based desserts" or "I want something light even late at night."
The base soft serve is made from a "21:00 Ice" original mix, produced at a farm in Hokkaido. It carries real richness from the milk, but finishes clean and light — a recipe developed specifically to complement the peach and panna cotta and let the fruit's flavor shine at its very best.
