Usami Ichika (宇佐美いちか Usami Ichika?) is one of the six main Cures and the lead Cure in KiraKira☆Pretty Cure A La Mode. She is a second-year student at Ichigozaka Middle School. When she gets excited, she jumps around like a "rabbit". Ichika's alter ego is Cure Whip (キュアホイップ Kyua Hoippu?), the Pretty Cure of liveliness and smiles, and she is based off shortcakes and rabbits. She is voiced by Karen Miyama. Her catchphrases are "Whip, Step, Jump!" (「ホイップ・ステップ・ジャーンプ！」 "Hoippu・Suteppu・Jānpu!"?) and "I have a bright idea!" (「キラっとひらめいた！」 "Kiratto Hirameita!"?).
