On September 2, 2023 (Saturday) at 12:45, after a barbecue with my wife and second son, we decided to have some dessert. We bought a vanilla soft serve ice cream in a cup for 350 yen from the nearby shop and enjoyed it on a bench in the shade outside, feeling the pleasant breeze. The soft serve here is made using high-quality fresh milk from the Satulac Agricultural Cooperative's dairy farmers. They have kept the vanilla flavor mild to preserve the original taste of the milk. It's rare to find such high-quality soft serve at this price, especially in this day and age. The rich milk flavor and smooth texture were delightful, with a refreshing milk aroma lingering in the aftertaste. My second son gazed at the vast green fields, the blue sky, and the horses in the distance, feeling like we were truly back in Hokkaido. It made me realize once again how wonderful Satoland is. As my children grow up, I feel a mix of happiness and nostalgia, but the family that my wife and I have worked so hard to nurture is my most precious treasure. That's what makes life meaningful for me.

A month ago, we visited Satoland after my son did some farming experience planting potatoes and weeding the field. After finishing weeding, we played on the newly renovated playground equipment and enjoyed some delicious soft serve ice cream. It was a hot day, so sitting in the shade and enjoying the soft serve ice cream was a special treat. The chocolate flavor here is rich and everyone in the family loves it. Thank you for the delicious treat!

After having lunch, I wanted something to refresh my mouth, so I searched for a soft serve ice cream shop with a parking lot that I could drive to, and I found this place. It's surprisingly close to the city center and has a spacious, free parking lot called "Satorando". The soft serve ice cream sold at the shop inside is made with fresh milk, so it's fresh and delicious! After eating the soft serve ice cream, you can relax on the lawn or interact with cows and sheep! It's not just about the soft serve ice cream, you can enjoy other things too. By the way, it's closer if you park at the 4th parking lot.

After lunch, I had soft serve ice cream. I stopped by on my way back after enjoying a delicious pizza. It's a shop inside Satoland. I purchased a ticket and placed my order. I chose a mix of vanilla and chocolate. The vanilla part was very refreshing milk soft serve. The chocolate part was the typical mass-produced chocolate. My husband wanted a mix, but I think I prefer just the vanilla. It's a lush and relaxing place. The children were running around and having fun. Thank you for the meal!

On August 29th, we had our annual tradition of having yakiniku at Satoland. After enjoying a variety of dishes, we went to Makiba-kan and bought a cup of yogurt-flavored soft serve ice cream to enjoy outside. The refreshing yogurt-flavored soft serve ice cream is something we have every year, and it never disappoints. After finishing the ice cream, we went back to enjoy more yakiniku and drinks. It was a day where we fully enjoyed the short summer in Hokkaido.

The food was delicious.

Visited Sato Land to enjoy the last summer of the year on 8/27. Arrived around 8:55 AM and the BBQ grills were already bustling before 9 AM. We set up our spot and started the BBQ. After eating and drinking, we took a stroll and visited the shop. My wife bought some vegetables inside, and both of us got the yogurt-flavored soft-serve ice cream we were looking forward to in a cup. I've loved the yogurt-flavored soft-serve ice cream since I first tried it a few years ago, so I always make sure to get it when I visit here. We ate outside while heading back to the grill area. The days are getting shorter, the air is starting to feel like autumn, and the short summer in Hokkaido is coming to an end.

I mainly came for a barbecue with ingredients and a shichirin, but this place was never close enough for me to visit before. At the Satlak Milk Village in Sato Land, there is a silo-like structure where you can see calves, and on weekends and holidays from 11:00 and 14:30, you can experience feeding milk to the calves. At the Milk Factory Milk Hall, you can take factory tours, among other activities. At the Handmade Workshop Makiba Hall, there is a place outside where goats and sheep are kept, and you can experience feeding them over the fence. The village shop at Milk Village has a small shop and the Makiba Hall shop, with the small shop only open on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. At the Makiba Hall Handmade Workshop, there is a soft serve ice cream shop and a restaurant called Makiba. The shop sells Satlak products at factory direct prices, as well as souvenirs. You can also see how various dairy products such as butter, pudding, and drinking yogurt are made. There was a covered barbecue house outside. Finally getting to the main topic, I bought and ate soft serve ice cream at the small shop. At the larger shop, I bought frozen additive-free beef smoked wieners from Hakone Farm in Chitose. I also bought Milk Pudding and Mocchirinko made with Hokkaido milk and rice flour. There were two flavors, black honey kinako and black sesame sauce. The soft serve ice cream has a gentle sweetness that allows you to feel the natural flavor of milk, with a very good melt-in-your-mouth texture and a refreshing, elegant vanilla flavor. If you want a rich and creamy soft serve ice cream, this may not be for you, but it was a soft serve ice cream that had a refreshing taste and a sense of the abundant blessings of Hokkaido, with a focus on freshness and milkiness. I wanted to try the yogurt-flavored soft serve ice cream that was not available at the small shop, but I was stopped by my companion, so I will try it next time. I wanted to eat it~♪ I wanted to eat it~♪ I wanted to eat it~♪ Soft serve! The wieners, when thawed, had a nice smoky scent when removed from the bag. The taste was not bad, but the slightly chewy texture was a bit disappointing, perhaps due to being thawed. So, let's try the soft serve and the slightly chewy texture!

The dining area next door also closes around 15:00, according to the lady at the shop, so I hope to come back soon or whenever there is an opportunity.

The other day, I had some free time during work and decided to visit this place. The shop near the parking lot seemed to be closed on weekdays, so I walked to Makiba-kan, a spacious store with a dining area at the back. They also had fresh vegetables and dairy products for souvenirs. I decided to try the "Strawberry Mix (260 yen)" instead of the usual vanilla at the ticket machine. Walking around the park with the pink and white strawberry mix made me feel a bit awkward as an older man. The soft serve had a strong milk flavor with a decent level of sweetness and not too greasy. The strawberry flavor was refreshing with a mild acidity that was not overwhelming. Eating the soft serve while strolling around the park on a sunny day made me feel so peaceful that I almost didn't want to go back to reality. I will definitely come back here when I need a break from the daily grind. Thank you for the meal.

I was told by a kindergarten mom friend that the soft serve ice cream here is delicious, so I went to Makiba-kan at Sato Land. On the east side of Sato Land's premises, there is a Satouraku agricultural cooperative milk factory where you can see the production of milk, pudding, and yogurt that are sold in supermarkets. The raw materials for the soft serve ice cream are also produced in this factory, so if the timing is right, you might be able to see it being made. In the directly operated shop, dairy products such as milk and yogurt pudding made in the factory are sold at a low price, with a pack of 3 puddings or yogurts for only 250 yen! It was so cheap that I couldn't help but buy some. I decided to enjoy the soft serve ice cream on the bench outside while looking at the natural scenery. Here's what I had: - Vanilla Soft Serve (\250): A slightly crunchy texture with a mild sweetness, reminiscent of the milk from the beloved Yoshimitsu Ranch in Ebetsu. - Yogurt Soft Serve (\260): A subtle yogurt flavor with a hint of sourness, more like a sour vanilla taste. - Strawberry Soft Serve (\260): A gentle strawberry flavor that was refreshing and easy to eat, with a nice balance of sweetness and fruit pulp. - Chocolate Soft Serve (\260): A smooth and rich chocolate flavor with a restrained sweetness, leaving a refreshing aftertaste. All four flavors of soft serve ice cream were delicious, with the yogurt flavor being my favorite this time. They were all hits! Near the shop, there is a petting farm where children can enjoy feeding sheep (for a fee). Besides eating, there are plenty of other fun activities, so I would love to visit again.

After visiting the Satsumaimo factory, I had some soft serve ice cream at the shop. They had a limited-time yogurt flavor for 260 yen. It had a slightly greenish color compared to vanilla. When I tried it, it tasted just like Satsumaimo's 3-layer yogurt! The texture was different from vanilla, it melted quickly so I had to eat it fast. It was delicious! Thank you for the meal. The yogurt soft serve ice cream is a limited-time special offer. It is made with plenty of milk and Pure Blanc, with added yogurt flavor. Pure Blanc is a new food material born from yogurt in Japan, made with 100% Hokkaido ingredients. It has the same yogurt flavor without the need for straining like Greek yogurt, making it easy to use. It is a rich, sterilized and concentrated yogurt paste.

@Sapporo Milk Village / Milk Factory Direct Sales Soft Serve Ice Cream♪July 17, 2010 Theme: Gourmet in Hokkaido Sapporo Located in the outskirts of Sapporo, close to Okadama Airport and Moerenuma Park, is "Milk Village" that we will introduce this time. This place is a part of Sapporo Satoland, a large site that includes the factory of the milk manufacturer "Satsuraku" and other facilities such as a park. In a corner of this vast site, you can find the destination of this review, a soft serve ice cream direct sales shop. The cute shop designed with a cow pattern sells not only soft serve ice cream but also freshly squeezed milk and snacks. However, the must-try item is definitely the soft serve ice cream (250 yen). It has a very smooth texture, without the typical richness of milk, and a light taste. Even those who are not fond of rich milk soft serve ice cream may enjoy this one. The soft serve ice cream is so delicious that it's surprising there aren't more customers besides us. In addition to the soft serve ice cream shop, there are also facilities such as milk factory tours, shops, restaurants, and Genghis Khan (grilled lamb) restaurants. The facility is well-equipped, and the plaza even has soccer goals and balls that you can freely use, bringing back memories of the World Cup excitement. There are lavender flowers blooming in various parts of the park, making it a very comfortable place to spend a relaxing holiday. I think it's the perfect place to spend a leisurely weekend.

Sapporo Satoland Makiba Store "Milk Shop Soft Serve Ice Cream" May 22, 2010 Saturday Soft serve ice cream made with milk from the milk manufacturer "Satsuraku" attached to the back of Satoland in the Higashi Ward. It costs 250 yen. I wanted to try the plum flavor, but it was sold out. This building is located right next to Satsuraku's factory, where they sell souvenirs, Satsuraku dairy products, butter, and cheese at discounted prices. There is also a dining area. The soft serve ice cream is not too sweet, cold, light, and you can feel some ice crystals in your mouth, so I asked the lady at the register about it. "This soft serve ice cream is made with Satsuraku's milk, right? It's quite light, is it just milk? Is it diluted? Is it watery?" It might have been a bit of a mean question. The lady at the register was surprised and said, "Did you feel some ice? It may have accidentally included frozen water vapor, I'm sorry. But this soft serve ice cream is made only with Satsuraku's milk. There is nothing else added. It's really light, isn't it? Not too rich, right? It's just milk. I think if it were just milk, other "rich" soft serve ice creams couldn't be so thick and sweet." I see, sorry about that. Even though she's a part-timer, she's quite knowledgeable. The lady at the register when I bought some snacks earlier also recommended a product, saying, "All the part-timers tried this and it's quite delicious. But it's not very popular." So, about the soft serve ice cream, I see, it's not necessarily better if it's richer, I get it now (＾◇＾)

We went to Satoland with a 3-year-old, a 1-year-old, and four people in total. We decided to eat at the restaurant on-site because we didn't want to risk getting sick in the scorching sun. The menu was different from what we saw online, but with limited options, we ended up at the dining area behind the store. Next time, I'll make sure to do proper research and visit "Harunire." We had the Makiba Set for 850 yen (hamburger, chicken rice, salad, soup) and my wife had the Ramen-Chahan Set for 700 yen. The food was delicious and worth the price. The 1-year-old fell asleep, and the 3-year-old devoured the ramen. The dining area had a lot of Asian customers. They offered free-flowing milk, which was a treat on a hot day. It was a diverse and enjoyable experience at this restaurant in Satoland.

This is the shop located at the back of Sato Land. They sell ingredients like cheese and snacks, as well as miscellaneous goods and toys. As a soft-serve ice cream lover, I couldn't resist! I ordered vanilla soft serve, while my husband got yogurt soft serve. It had a smooth texture, rich flavor, and was delicious. Since it's surrounded by lots of greenery, I recommend buying from the shop and enjoying your soft serve on the bench outside while taking a break. It's best on warm, sunny days.
