Kumori Discontinued Menu Items Philippines 2026
✓ Prices verified
Can't find an old Kumori favorite anymore? You're probably not misremembering it. The kumori discontinued menu items in this guide are items that showed up in older write-ups but no longer appear in the current Sept 24, 2026 Gateway Mall listing, and Kumori has published no official discontinued list. For what's still on sale today, start with the full Kumori menu prices first.
Which items count as Kumori discontinued menu items?
Four buns from a 2015 to 2016 launch-era write-up no longer show up in the current listing: the Soft Matcha Bun, Salmon Bonito, Fuwa-Fuwa Cream Bun, and a Japanese-style Croissant. That write-up published no prices for them, so there are no prices to quote here, and we're not going to guess. Kumori never said these were discontinued, so treat them as quietly rotated out rather than officially retired.
| Item (2015-2016 Write-Up) | Description | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Soft Matcha Bun Soft bun with matcha cream filling |
Sweet bun | Not published in that write-up |
| Salmon Bonito Soft bun with savory salmon filling, teriyaki drizzle, bonito flakes |
Savory bun | Not published in that write-up |
| Fuwa-Fuwa Cream Bun Soft bread with creamy egg custard, snow sugar |
Sweet bun | Not published in that write-up |
| Croissant Japanese-style, European butter |
Pastry | Not published in that write-up |
Launch-era buns that quietly vanished
These were the playful early days of Kumori in the Philippines: a matcha cream bun, a savory salmon bun with teriyaki drizzle and bonito flakes, an egg custard bun dusted with snow sugar, and a croissant made with European butter. They're lovely write-up details and that's all they are now, since no current listing carries them.
What did the old single-piece cheese items cost in 2018?
A Nov 2018 Festival Mall blog visit is the last place three cheese items show up by the piece: Signature Hanjuku Cheese at ₱49 a piece, Signature Cheese Tart at ₱60 a piece, and Japanese Cheese Loaf at ₱160. Those are old 2018 prices, not today's prices, and they're labeled that way in the table below. The current listing sells Hanjuku Cheese and the Signature Cheese Tart in boxes of 6 only, and the loaf line now shows Premium Cheese Loaf at ₱195, so single pieces and the old loaf name look like they've been replaced.
| Item (Nov 2018 Visit) | Format Then | Old Price |
|---|---|---|
| Signature Hanjuku Cheese | Sold singly | ₱49/pc (old 2018 price) |
| Signature Cheese Tart | Sold singly | ₱60/pc (old 2018 price) |
| Japanese Cheese Loaf | Loaf | ₱160 (old 2018 price) |
What replaced the old cheese items on the current menu?
Nothing disappeared without a trace. Today's listing still carries the stars, just in different formats: Hanjuku Cheese in a box of 6 at ₱390, Signature Cheese Tart in a box of 6 at ₱410, and Premium Cheese Loaf at ₱195. For the morning side of the menu, the Kumori breakfast picks round out what's fresh at the counter right now.
| Old Format | Current Format (Sept 24, 2026 Listing) | Current Price |
|---|---|---|
| Hanjuku Cheese, single pc ₱49/pc in Nov 2018 (old price) |
Hanjuku Cheese, box of 6 | ₱390 |
| Signature Cheese Tart, single pc ₱60/pc in Nov 2018 (old price) |
Signature Cheese Tart, box of 6 | ₱410 |
| Japanese Cheese Loaf ₱160 in Nov 2018 (old price) |
Premium Cheese Loaf | ₱195 |
Which Kumori items come and go with the seasons?
Kumori also rotates limited and seasonal launches, so an item can vanish from the listing and pop back later. Past examples include Ube Hanjuku Cheese and a Matcha Cheese Tart tied to new branch openings. These were never positioned as permanent menu items, which is why chasing a fixed retirement date for them doesn't really work.
| Seasonal / Limited Item | What Happened | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Ube Hanjuku Cheese | Past limited launch | Not on current listing |
| Matcha Cheese Tart | Tied to new branch openings | Not on current listing |
Past limited launches to watch for
Ube Hanjuku Cheese rode the ube wave, and the Matcha Cheese Tart showed up around new branch openings. Both followed the same pattern: announced on social, sold for a stretch, then gone without a retirement announcement. If you loved one, following Kumori PH on Facebook is the only reliable way to catch the next run.
How can I check if a Kumori item is still available?
The fastest check is still the branch itself. Availability shifts by branch and by baking batch, so message Kumori PH on Facebook for the day's lineup, then ask the counter staff what came out of the oven and what's closest if your old favorite is gone. The Kumori secret menu guide has ideas for swaps worth asking about when that happens.
| Step | What To Do |
|---|---|
| 1. Check Facebook | Message Kumori PH for the day's lineup and any limited runs. |
| 2. Ask the branch | Call or visit your branch; items vary by branch and baking batch. |
| 3. Ask for a swap | If your old favorite is gone, ask staff for the closest current item. |
