When people think of Osaka, they think of street food, neon lights, and warm hospitality. But ask any traveler or local foodie what the #1 must-buy souvenir is, and the answer is almost unanimous:
🧀 The legendary fresh-baked Osaka cheesecake — hot, jiggly, and impossible to resist.
🔥 What Makes Osaka’s Cheesecake So Special?
Forget dense New York-style cakes — Osaka’s version is a light, fluffy, soufflé-style cheesecake that’s fresh out of the oven. It's warm, subtly sweet, and melts in your mouth. Made with the perfect balance of cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and milk, it’s a dessert that feels like a warm hug.
And best of all? You get it straight from the oven, often still steaming when handed to you in a charming box — perfect for carrying back as a gift or devouring on the Shinkansen.
🏆 Where to Get It: The Most Famous Shop
The most iconic brand behind this sweet sensation?
Rikuro Ojisan no Cheesecake (Uncle Rikuro's Cheesecake) — with its famous logo of a smiling grandpa chef and a signature stamp pressed on every cake. You’ll often find lines winding out the door at their Namba and Shin-Osaka locations.
Each cake is baked fresh on-site, and you can even watch the mesmerizing process: pouring the batter, baking in rows, and the satisfying "bounce test" when they're pulled from the oven.
🎁 Why It’s the Perfect Souvenir
✅ Easy to carry (comes in a cute box with cooling options)
✅ Loved by all ages — from kids to grandparents
✅ Affordable (under ¥1,000 per whole cake!)
✅ Handmade & local — a true taste of Osaka
Tip: It stays fresh for a few days and can be enjoyed warm or chilled. You can even heat it briefly at home to relive that bakery-fresh experience.
✈️ Pro Travel Tip:
If you’re flying out of Kansai International Airport, pick one up after security at the terminal. No need to carry it around all day — just enjoy it fresh before departure or bring it back to surprise someone special.

Discover the delicate beauty and cultural depth of the oiled paper umbrella (油纸伞) — a traditional Chinese and East Asian craft that’s quietly making a return in New Zealand’s art circles, heritage festivals, and eco-conscious design markets. Handcrafted with bamboo frames, hand-painted motifs, and waterproofed with natural tung oil, these umbrellas were once essentials for everyday life and ceremonial use across Asia.
In Aotearoa, the oiled paper umbrella is gaining traction not only as a cultural artefact but as a symbol of slow craftsmanship and sustainable living. From Chinese New Year celebrations in Auckland and Dunedin to boutique stores in Wellington featuring curated handmade goods, this umbrella carries a sense of elegance and meaning that resonates with Kiwi values of authenticity and storytelling.
Whether you’re a collector of Asian antiques, a set designer, a sustainable fashion lover, or simply someone drawn to the poetic beauty of hand-painted heritage, the oiled paper umbrella holds a special place. It invites us to pause, reflect, and protect not just from rain — but from the erosion of cultural memory.
NZ Relevance Highlights:
Fits into NZ’s growing appreciation for handmade, natural products
Popular at cultural festivals (e.g., Lantern Festival, Moon Festival)
Ideal for film, theatre, and wedding design with East Asian influences
Appeals to heritage educators and multicultural classrooms
Represents cross-cultural connections between Māori and Chinese artisanship in shared respect for nature-based materials
