The words “kikakugai” (non-standard) and “wakeari” (irregular) in this article are labels the shop uses, and they do not indicate whether the taste or quality is better or worse. Kikakugai Cheesecake (規格外チーズケーキ), 5 Pieces is a cheesecake set of about 60g x 5 pieces that arrives frozen. The product name alone does not tell you what makes it kikakugai, by when to eat it after thawing, or whether noshi and wrapping are included, so this article organizes what Patisserie Leitry’s Rakuten Ichiba product page and the Rakuten customer reviews say into five points: amount, shelf life, ingredient labeling, suitability as a gift, and reviews.
What We Confirmed
- Amount and a guide to how many servings
- Storage, thawing, and shelf life
- Ingredients, allergen labeling, and the manufacturer’s labeling
- Whether it works as a gift
- Trends in the public reviews

Five Things to Check Before Buying
| Point to Check | For This Product | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Amount / Servings | About 60g x 5 pieces. There is no statement of how many servings it makes, so it is a matter of checking by the number of pieces | Product description on the Rakuten Ichiba product page |
| 2. Storage and Shelf Life | Keep at −18°C or below; the best-before date is 1 year from the date of manufacture. Thaw in the refrigerator for about 3 hours, and eat soon after thawing, the page advises. The number of days after thawing is Not confirmed | Product description on the Rakuten Ichiba product page |
| 3. Ingredients and Allergen Labeling | Dairy, egg, wheat, and soy. The same 4 items on Rakuten Ichiba and Amazon | Rakuten Ichiba product description / Amazon listing information |
| 4. Suitable as a Gift? | We found no statement that noshi, wrapping, or message cards are supported. The shop states that it does not enclose a statement showing amounts | Rakuten Ichiba product page and explanatory image |
| 5. What Reviews Say | The Rakuten Ichiba rating is 4.69 out of 5 (1,430 reviews). The trends are summarized in the “What Public Reviews Say” section. These are trends in the 74 reviews we read and may not reflect the product’s current condition | Rakuten customer reviews (accessed September 30, 2026) |
Suitable as a Gift?
We found no statement on the Rakuten Ichiba product page that noshi, wrapping, or message cards are supported. In Rakuten’s product information as well, noshi is treated as not supported. There is also no statement on the box specifications, such as whether a gift box is used, so this is Not confirmed.
An information image from the shop states that it does not enclose a statement showing amounts, and that if you need a statement, you should note this in the remarks field. There is also an information image saying you can choose a delivery time slot. On the other hand, it also states that, because everything is a frozen product, delivery left at the door is not available and the item is to be received in person. If you are sending it as a gift, checking in advance the date and time the recipient can receive it, and whether they have room in the freezer for 5 pieces, will make a mix-up less likely.
Among the reviews we read, some posts said they used it as a gift for family or friends (source: Rakuten customer reviews, accessed September 30, 2026).
