What Reviewers Note
Moisture comes out and the cream is soft or soggy (6 reviews)
6 of the 47 reviews said the cream became soft or soggy from the fruit’s moisture (one 1★, one 2★, two 3★, two 4★; September 2023 to April 2026). 1 of them was posted within the last 2 years. Some reviews also say that from the day after delivery the moisture moves into the cake too much, so it is better to eat it on the day (poster’s description).
The price feels high (about 6 reviews)
About 6 reviews said the price felt high. Of these, 3 of the 5★ reviews say they were satisfied while feeling it was expensive. No amounts are given in this article.
The melon flesh is hard or not sweet (3 reviews)
3 reviews, at 1★ to 3★ (August 2022 to June 2026), said the melon flesh was hard, not sweet, or had a weak flavor. 1 of them was posted within the last 2 years. On the other hand, as noted above, there are also reviews saying the melon was sweet or fully ripe, so impressions are divided.
In addition, 3 reviews touched on cutting: 2 said it was large and hard to cut, and 1 said it cut into 4 servings without falling apart. Among the reviews that stated how many people ate it, 3 mention sharing it among 4 people, but this is not the shop’s statement.
