Summary
- My Melody likes Sweet, Pink, and Dreamy items for quick friendship boosts.
- Strawberry Shortcake and Pink Latte are easy, effective gifts for building friendship.
- Pink Cloud and Sweet Cloud offer high gift values for fast progress in friendship.
In Hello Kitty Island Adventure, players can gift items to any character up to three times daily. To boost friendship more efficiently, certain gifts are more effective for particular characters. Each gift is associated with up to four tags, each tagged with a value ranging from 0 to 2 points. On top of that, each heart attached to a tag contributes an additional 1 point to the gift’s total value. The total value of a gift depends on the combined points from its tags and hearts, which in turn influences the amount of friendship XP earned when the gift is given.

My Melody enjoys gifts with the Sweet, Pink, and Dreamy tags, making items with these tags a great choice for increasing friendship over time. She can often be found in her furniture store at the center of Seaside Resort. Building friendship with My Melody unlocks additional Visitor Cabins and grants access to two useful companion abilities. The first, Big Smile, unlocked at level 4, boosts the chances of receiving an extra gift from other characters when giving them gifts. The second ability, Handy Helper, unlocked at level 9, reduces the repair cost for each Visitor Cabin by one Strawberry Crate.

Strawberry
A Basic Starting Option

- Hearts: 1
- Gift Value: 1
In Hello Kitty Island Adventure, the Strawberry is an excellent starting gift for My Melody, offering an easy and effective way to build friendship with her. To obtain the Strawberries, players must first gift Pochacco in order to receive them in return. The simplest item to give to Pochacco is Tofu, which is provided by gifting to Hello Kitty.
Strawberries are a straightforward and reliable option to gift to My Melody early in the game, allowing players to increase friendship quickly and efficiently and helping them progress further.

- Gift Value: 3
- Recipe: Flour, Strawberry

5
Pink Latte
A Good Value Gift Made With Common Ingredients
- Tags: Cozy Beverage, Sweet, Pink
- Hearts: 2
- Gift Value: 4
- Recipe: Candlenut, Strawberry or Sakura
Pink Latte can be made with either Strawberry or Sakura as the second ingredient, but it’s highly recommended to use Strawberry. It’s easier to obtain and less valuable than Sakura, making it the more practical choice. Candlenut, which is essential for crafting drinks at the Espresso Machine, is given by Hangyodon once players gift to him.
The Espresso Machine itself is located in the Comedy Club at Rainbow Reef. While players will need to unlock the snorkel to reach this underwater area, there’s a Fast Travel Mailbox nearby, so no Stamina Apples are needed to get there.

Pink Cloud
A Strong Option Once Cloud Island Is Unlocked
- Tags: Cloud, Dreamy, Pink
- Hearts: 2
- Gift Value: 6
- Recipe: Candy Cloud, Strawberry or Sakura
Slightly more difficult to obtain than previous gifting options, the Pink Cloud is a food item made at the Candy Cloud Machine on Cloud Island. To access Cloud Island, players must first complete the “Stargazing” quest from Hello Kitty, which becomes available after finishing the “A Challenging Rescue” and “Baker’s Assistant” quests. To use the Candy Cloud Machine, players must reach level 2 friendship with Lala and complete the “Sweet in the Stars” quest.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure: Best Gifts For Wish Me Mell
For those looking to make friends with Wish Me Mell in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, here are some of the best gifts that can be given to her.
Like the Pink Latte, the Pink Cloud can be made with either Strawberry or Sakura. By this point in the game, players will have unlocked Merry Meadow, where they can harvest 22 Sakura daily, so the choice of ingredient is up to personal preference. Candy Clouds are also easy to acquire, as they are a return gift from Cinamoroll.
3
Sweet Cloud
A Slightly More Convenient Cloud Gift Option
- Tags: Cloud, Dreamy, Dessert
- Hearts: 1
- Gift Value: 6
- Recipe: Candy Cloud, Swampmallow or Sugarkelp
Sweet Cloud, like the Pink Cloud, is crafted using the Candy Cloud Machine on Cloud Island. Both require Candy Cloud as their main ingredient, but Sweet Cloud is often the more convenient option. In terms of the second ingredient, players can forage for Swampmallow daily in the Spooky Swamp, which becomes available early in the game. Sugarkelp, the return gift from Keroppi, is also a good choice, but with 15 Swampmallows available each day, they tend to be the more efficient option for managing resources.
Both Pink Cloud and Sweet Cloud have a gift value of 6, making them excellent choices to gift My Melody three times a day for fast friendship progress.
2
Strawberry Almond Galette
A High Gift Value With Simple Ingredients
- Tags: Bakery, Dreamy, Pink
- Hearts: 2
- Gift Value: 7
- Recipe: Flour, Strawberry, Toasted Almond
The Strawberry Almond Galette is crafted using the upgraded oven in the Hello Kitty Cafe. To unlock the upgraded oven, players must reach level 15 friendship with Hello Kitty, which takes time and effort. However, as a late-game option, this gift is ideal due to its simple ingredients and the convenience of the cafe’s location.

Cactus Cream, one of the main ingredients, can be found daily around Gemstone Mountain, with up to 12 available. The other ingredients are also easy to acquire, making this gift a fairly accessible choice for late-game players.
