Cheery and upbeat, Ichika loves all kind of sweets and she loves to brainstorm new ideas. She's very creative and excels at decorating and making animal sweets, but her cooking skills and schooling could use some work. She has a way of making others smile through her pure and genuine feelings and heart she puts into everything she does, and she is usually very perky.

Her Pretty Cure alter-ego is Cure Whip, the Pretty Cure of liveliness and smiles, and she is based off shortcakes and rabbits.
