The second gift sweets from Yokohama Vanilla, with the concept of "A premium bite that you want to give casually."
The refined packaging and exquisite taste make it a popular choice not only as a souvenir from Yokohama but also as a stylish gift to share. The biggest charm is the contrast of new textures created through meticulous temperature control. First, take a bite, and the delicately baked sable crumbles gently, followed by the rich, specially made vanilla chocolate cream that melts smoothly. The Andes pink rock salt sprinkled on top sharpens the taste and leaves a deep aftertaste. Enjoy a blissful experience where everything melts together on your tongue, with the rich aroma of natural Bourbon vanilla extract used abundantly.
