Morinaga's Parm line of ice creams occasionally has some seasonal and limited-time flavors. Parm Caramel Pumpkin ice cream is a limited-time product that combines flavors that recall pumpkin pie, caramel-coated treats, and chocolate of the Halloween season. This ice cream bar is great for the price - rich pumpkin-puree flavored ice cream with a swirl of caramel syrup with a caramel chocolate coating. The caramel and chocolate contrast with the sweetness of the ice cream. I've indulged in this a few times now.

Alas, this ice cream bar's label indicates it is only available for a limited time. I really like this one despite not being a big sweets fiend. However, I spoil myself with this one once a week until it disappears from the 7-11. As a novelty and limited-time product, it's available individually wrapped at convenience stores. I checked the Morinaga website and it doesn't come in a family-size box of 6 like their other ice creams. Still, for 150 yen a piece, it's a cheap treat to enjoy while you can.
