Bringing Back Memories of a Restaurant from 50 Years Ago. Hakujuji to Offer Chocolate Cake "CHOCOLATE BOX" Nationwide as a Frozen Product.

## Chocolate Cake Born from Restaurant Memories Hakujuji once had a restaurant called "Birdland Hakujuji" about 50 years ago. It was a place beloved by many customers for family gatherings and special moments. "CHOCOLATE BOX" is a modern confectionery reconstructed based on the memories of the chocolate cake served in that space. It's not merely a reproduction; it was designed with the aim of being "a confectionery that allows you to take home the atmosphere of that era." ## Aiming for a "Melting in Your Mouth" Texture This product uses a sponge cake made without emulsifiers. It features a moist cake layered with rich and flavorful chocolate cream blended with fresh cream and homemade ganache, and carefully roasted walnuts. Instead of prioritizing lightness or ease of handling, we focused on the natural melting and disappearing texture in the mouth. In an era where shelf life and efficiency are prioritized, this is a confectionery that re-examines the "original melt-in-the-mouth experience." Chocolate cream and walnuts are sandwiched in two layers. The topping is hand-shaved by artisans from carefully selected couverture chocolate made from highly aromatic cacao beans. This product, which has primarily been sold in stores, Due to its delicate texture, its value was not fully conveyed. Therefore, we have reviewed its size and design and will begin selling it frozen. By utilizing freezing technology, we have reconstructed it into a form that can be delivered to distant customers while maintaining quality. We believe that that "deliciousness cannot be measured by lightness alone" – we want to carefully deliver this obvious truth once again. ## About the Packaging The packaging design reflects the ambiance of the former "Birdland Hakujuji" restaurant. The memories and texture of that time have been re-edited into a modern form, Aiming for an appearance that can be chosen both as a gift and for one's own special time. --- ## Product Overview Product Name: CHOCOLATE BOX Contents: Chocolate cake (sponge / chocolate cream / roasted walnuts) Sales Format: Refrigerated sales Frozen sales Launch Date: April 30th (Thursday) Price: 1,580 yen (tax included) Sales Location: Official Online Shop https://www.hakujuji-g.co.jp/products/?c=item_view&pk=378 ## Company Profile Company Name: Hakujuji Co., Ltd.
