The description

A bright, refreshing Mini Stop treat with creamy soft‑serve and a sweet‑tart strawberry sauce, made with benihoppe strawberries which are known for the sweetness. 


The good

For a little bit of indulgence, the parfait range at Ministop is worth the extra yen in my opinion. Generally, Ministop's ice cream range is really good, one of the better ones in my humble opinion. Every now and then we treat ourselves to one of their premium offerings, such as this Benihoppe Strawberry Parfait. We had it in store, so it came in a (glass mimicking) plastic parfait cup. The bottom is chopped strawberries, that is layered with ice-cream above and then at the top a curl of ice-cream with strawberries and a delicious strawberry syrup. It really was delectable.


The not so good

While my daughter and I really enjoyed it, some people may find it a little too sweet especially if you are eating a whole one to yourself (we shared one) - sweet strawberries topped with cream and sweet syrup. Unfortunately, this product is only available during the prime strawberry picking season, which has finished for 2026. According to the Ministop official website, this product will once again be available from December 26th 2026. But not to worry, in the meantime you can enjoy some of their other flavors! Including another time limited offering - the blueberry parfait which you will also find reviewed on City-cost. It is only available in summertime when the blueberries are freshly grown.
