On LeTAO’s (ルタオ) Rakuten Ichiba product page, there is a frozen set in which you get Fromage Double (4-go) plus one more item chosen from three options. What you pick as the second item changes the contents, total weight, allergen labeling, and the guideline for how soon to eat it after thawing, so the differences can be hard to see from the product page alone. This article organizes the product page’s description and review-site information into five points: quantity, storage method, ingredient labeling, suitability as a gift, and reviews.

Ingredients and allergen labeling
According to the product page, Fromage Double is labeled as containing wheat, egg, milk, and gelatin. The ingredients and allergen labeling of the second item differ depending on which option you choose. The table below copies the wording in the attributes field of the Rakuten Ichiba product page.
| Item | Main ingredients | Allergen labeling |
|---|---|---|
| Fromage Double (fixed) | Fresh cream (fresh milk (Hokkaido)), cream cheese, sugar, whole egg, mascarpone cheese, wheat flour, egg yolk, gelatin / stabilizer (locust bean gum) | Wheat, egg, milk, gelatin |
| Jersey Milk Roll | Fresh cream (fresh milk (Hokkaido)), egg white (contains egg), egg yolk, sugar, wheat flour, food made mainly from milk and dairy products, Jersey milk, confectionery ingredients, sesame oil, starch syrup, sweetened condensed milk powder, and others / trehalose, gelling agent (thickening polysaccharides), emulsifier (soy-derived), flavoring, sodium metaphosphate | Wheat, egg, milk, sesame, soy, gelatin |
| Venechia Randevu (ヴェネチアランデヴー) | Fresh cream (fresh milk (Hokkaido)), cookie tart (wheat flour, food made mainly from milk and dairy products, whole egg, sugar, other) (contains almond and soy), mascarpone cheese, egg yolk, sugar, gelatin, vanilla paste / leavening agent, flavoring | Wheat, egg, milk, almond, soy, gelatin (the allergen field does not list soy, but the ingredients field states that soy is contained, so it is listed here on the side of containing it; see the note below) |
| Rare Chocolate Niagara | Chocolate (cocoa butter, lactose, sugar, vegetable fat, whole milk powder) (made in Japan), fresh cream, margarine, wine, cornstarch / sorbitol, emulsifier (soy-derived), flavoring, coloring (spirulina blue, carotene) | Milk, soy (the “allergen” field in Rakuten’s attributes says dairy products and soy). A note states that products containing wheat are made at the manufacturing plant |
| Royal Montagne | Chocolate (sugar, vegetable fat, cocoa butter, lactose, whole milk powder, cacao mass, cocoa powder, black tea extract powder, black tea powder) (contains soy, made in Japan), cocoa powder / emulsifier, flavoring | Milk, soy (the “allergen” field in Rakuten’s attributes says dairy products and soy).

There were two discrepancies in the labeling. The first is the allergen labeling of the two chocolates: Rakuten Ichiba’s attributes field says dairy products and soy, while the Yahoo! Shopping product page says milk and soy, so the wording differs (the number of items is the same). The second is Venechia Randevu: the allergen field does not list soy, while the cookie tart in the ingredients field is stated to contain almond and soy. In this article, I follow the side with more items, so Venechia Randevu is treated as also containing soy.
Niagara uses wine, and the page states that it contains alcohol, though less than 1%. The product page says that children and people sensitive to alcohol should take care.
In addition to the allergen labeling on the product page, the shop asks customers to check the collective food labeling on the back and sides of the product box. If you have an allergy to an item not listed in the labeling, please contact the seller before purchasing, or check the food information label on the product you receive.

Suitable as a Gift?
The purchase field of the Rakuten Ichiba product page has selection fields for noshi, a message card, and candles (viewed October 6, 2026).
- Noshi: there is a selection field for adding noshi, and the inscription is chosen from these combinations: 内祝・御礼・御祝・御歳暮・御年賀 (red-and-white bow knot) / 寿・内祝・御礼・御祝 (red-and-white fixed knot, 10 strands) / 快気祝・内祝 (red-and-white fixed knot, 5 strands). You can also choose no noshi. The name printed on the noshi is limited to 7 characters (half-width characters not allowed). The page states that noshi cannot be prepared if you choose a ribbon sticker
- Message card: you can choose from none, birthday card, seasonal message card, and Christmas card. The message is limited to 20 characters
- Candles: there is a selection field for large candles (12cm, set of 5), and you can choose from none, 5, 10, or 15
- Packaging: I could not confirm on the product page whether it comes in a gift box, a simple gift box, or gift wrapping. Individual packaging is shown as none
- Delivery: the page states that you can specify the delivery date and time. It arrives frozen and the guideline for eating it after thawing is within 24 to 48 hours, so checking in advance which day the recipient can receive it helps avoid mix-ups.

The shop’s description lists uses such as birthdays, return gifts, year-end gifts (oseibo), and Mother’s Day, and notes that, depending on the product, it may not be able to accommodate a desired use such as a seasonal gift because of the best-before date. In the reviews, about 22 of the first 60 in the default sort order described using it as a gift for birthdays, Mother’s Day, oseibo, White Day, and similar occasions (Source: Rakuten customer reviews, viewed October 6, 2026).
