North American fans of the mouth-less Sanrio feline can now rejoice as the first ever Hello Kitty Cafe will finally land on their continent!
Announced in the form of a bright pink food truck at the Hello Kitty Convention held in Los Angeles, fans were elated to learn that Hello Kitty will finally get her own cafe in California! Judging by the extreme cuteness of the pictures released so far, it seems like this cafe will take kawaii to a whole new level!
Currently, the minimalistic website for the cafe only has a link to the cafe’s official Instagram where several pictures of the cafe truck’s appearance at the Hello Kitty Con have been uploaded. The cafe is expected to open in Summer 2015 in Orange County, but in the mean time the cafe’s truck will be making its rounds around the sunny East Coast.
▼ The Hello Kitty Cafe truck conquers North America!
▼ The pink truck says it all – the level of kawaii will be extraordinary.
▼Hello Kitty-themed donuts make these sweets even sweeter!
▼ These fondant-decorated cakes are almost too cute to be eaten.
▼ What’s a cafe without macarons?
▼ There are even adorable bow-shaped water bottles!
Looks like those who live in California already have something to look forward to next summer! We can’t wait to check out the cafe for ourselves next year!
