Instant Ramen are popular souvenirs but at the Cup Noodles Museum you can create an even more special souvenir.

You can make your original cup noodles at the "My Cup Noodle Factory".
Let's buy a cup at the vending machine first. This cup is a special version and you can freely draw a picture on the plain back. If you write a message and give it to somebody as a present, this person will certainly be delighted.
After completing the design, go to the counter to make the filling.

Select the soup and ingredients. Around 5460 flavor combinations are possible!

Select your preferred flavor from 4 sorts of soup and 4 toppings from 12 different sorts of toppings. This is an important point for creating originality! By the way you can select the same topping several times. There are also limited versions of toppings.
The famous Hiyoko-chan fish cake can rarely be seen in the standard cup noodles so you might want to add this topping.

After covering the cup and wrapping it in plastic film your worldwide unique cup noodles are completed!
They can be stored for 1 month.
The air package you can put it into looks like a special bag. There are also many photo spots in the museum so you can take souvenir pictures and boast about them!

The "My Cup Noodle Factory" is not the Cup Noodle Museum's only highlight.
Among other things there is a model of the research hut of Momofuku Ando who invented instant Ramen, an instant Ramen tunnel where around 800 kinds of packages of different generations line up, the history of Momofuku Ando's invention, a graphical explanation of the development and a theater.
