British soft-toy brand Jellycat has become very popular in recent years and their signature plush toys, or plushies, can be seen both on social media and as keychains on the bags of every other person on the street.

Some enterprising cafes have started to incorporate the brand’s charming designs into their food and drink items. The hashtags #jellycatcoffee and #jellycatcoffeecups collectively have over 8 million views on RedNote, a Chinese social media platform also known as Xiaohongshu.

Ukiyo, a cafe in Tsim Sha Tsui’s K11 Musea shopping centre, has collaborated with children’s store Hanna Scallop to launch a Jellycat-themed menu, available until July.

From 11am each day, diners can enjoy special drinks, including caramel honeycomb latte, matcha pistachio milkshake and mochi pistachio ice cream, served in glasses or cups that feature the plushies’ signature cheery face.
