FUWA FUWA Soufflé Cafe in Fresno offers a laid-back spot for those looking to indulge in Japanese-inspired soufflé pancakes and a broad selection of tea and coffee drinks. Located on E Paseo Del Centro, this café blends a minimalist, calming interior with a friendly vibe that makes it a nice pause during a busy day or a casual meet-up spot.

What stands out here is the focus on soufflé pancakes that come in several flavors like strawberry, chocolate, mango, and matcha—each with a fluffy texture that avoids heaviness or overt egginess. Their matcha and taro drinks, including frappes and lattes, are consistently noted for being smooth and well-balanced, without the overly strong or powdery taste sometimes found in similar offerings.

The café also has a broad range of tea-based options including bubble teas with boba, fruit teas, and some unique beverages such as the strawberry cheese tea and mango cloud tea. These drinks come across as thoughtfully crafted and refreshingly sweetened, often making them popular with younger crowds or anyone wanting a flavorful twist on traditional milk tea.

Locals seem to enjoy FUWA FUWA as a quiet retreat—whether waiting out small life moments or catching a break with a good drink and dessert combo. The staff is known to be attentive and efficient, which keeps the experience smooth even during busier times. The space’s minimalistic décor creates a chill atmosphere that invites lingering without feeling rushed or cramped.

Best times to visit are mid-mornings or early afternoons on weekdays, when you can grab a seat without feeling crowded. It’s ideal for those who appreciate a relaxed environment and want a sweeter, less conventional coffee shop experience that delivers on quality soufflés and creamy, flavorful drinks.

I love Fuwa Fuwa so much I'm tempted to gate keep but I can't in good conscience!! Their soufflé pancakes are so delicious every time. And I love their matcha frappes too, they're so creamy and delicious.

The staff are great and the time it took to get our drinks was amazing. I tried their boba it was well cooked and sweet enough. The matcha is great as well, they are great with accommodations.

We ordered the taro blended, taro souffle,and the chocolate souffle. Loved the taro drink it did not taste too strong nor did it have a powdery taste to it. The chocolate souffle was beautiful not a big fan of eggs and it tasted and smelled like eggs but the texture was very fluffy and pleasing.

Was at river park Wednesday morning and I got locked out of my car lol as I waited to get my car opened for us my bf and I found this little place and they had just opened for the day and really sweet lady greeted us. She took our order and we waited for our treats. Environment was very chill and calming I love the minimalistic look and I felt very relaxed as my bf and I waited. We get our order and omg it was the warmest most comforting little pancakes I’d ever had!! It was the perfect sweet but not too sweet and flavorful fruit taste with very good fresh fruit too! I love the jiggle it has lol. The place is cute, the environment was relaxing and the staff was friendly. Definitely a new “end the date” spot for us

Went on Halloween to take some oshikatsu photos for L's birthday. Their lemon black tea is really tasty and the strawberry soufflé was perfect in taste and appearance for the photos.

Love their Strawberry Soufflé! Whenever I go to Riverpark I will always get one to share. The size is pretty big (depends if you can eat a lot of sweet/debatable), and I can never finish one by myself. It’s always warm and fresh, not even kidding, as long as you come back in time. It does take a while for a soufflé to be ready, but trust, it’s worth it. Also, love the vibes inside the cafe, it’s a bit cozy and love the arts.
