They’ll only be available for a limited time, though, much like the incidental blowjob cup McDonald’s released last year. Priced at 150 yen (US$1.37) each, these pies are great value for money and well worth trying if you get the chance. These were definitely designed for adult palates, with each mouthful containing elements of luxury, decadence, and refinement that has them sitting well above the standard McDonald’s apple pie. While we were surprised by the name of the desserts at first, we ended up being surprised by their taste as well. ▼ Combined with the crispy fried pastry, the pie tasted similar to a fancy chocolate doughnut. While it was filled with rich Belgian chocolate, the reduced sweetness made it easy to eat, giving it a lightness that made it seem more like a silky mousse than a heavy cream. Surprisingly, though, we had no problem devouring the whole thing, and that was because of the otona element. This cream pie was thick and gooey, with a dark centre that made it look like it would be way too rich and creamy for us to handle.

The pastry looked absolutely delicious, with its bubbly coating and glossy sheen just begging to be cracked open for a taste. The Belgian Chocola was calling to us next, and when we took it out of its box, we could see it was covered in a chocolate pastry. The subdued sweetness allowed the tartness of the cream to shine through, which made it taste like an expensive dessert from a fancy patisserie, wrapped up in McDonald’s pie pastry. That’s when we understood the concept of “otona” in the sense of a grown-up, decadent indulgence. And this was no ordinary cheesecake flavour either, as it had a distinctly refined, high-quality taste. We were expecting it to taste like cheese, but instead, we were surprised to discover it tasted exactly like cheesecake. We dipped a finger into it for a taste, and the flavour of the luscious cream melted on the tongue, tasting both tart and sweet at the same time. The cream was thick, and there was a lot of it too. Inside, though, it was a whole other story.

We opened up the Sweet Fromage first, which, from the outside, looked just like an ordinary McDonald’s apple pie, albeit in a new, swirl-adorned package. ▼ The cream pie comes in Belgian Chocola (left) and Sweet Fromage (right). We have to admit, it sounded odd when we asked for two flavours of “ Otona no Cream Pie” at the counter, but staff were all smiles as they packed them up in a McDonald’s-branded brown paper bag for us. So when the dessert went on sale today, we were one of the first in line to find out what an Adult Cream Pie tastes like. Whether the double meaning was innocent or intentional, it’s a stroke of marketing genius that has a lot of people interested in the new product. However, the difference in nuance has been lost in translation now that the word has been combined with “cream pie”, which evokes some X-rated imagery for English speakers. The dessert hasn’t really raised any eyebrows in Japan, as the word “ adaruto” is used when referring to the adult entertainment industry and “ otona” is often used to describe confectionery with less sweetness aimed at more refined adult palates. This dessert has been a long time coming.Įarlier this week, McDonald’s Japan surprised the English-language speaking world when they announced they would be releasing the Otona no Cream Pie, which translates to “Adult Cream Pie” in English.
