Torona Japan Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Takeshi Osawa, Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo) will begin rolling out eight new frozen food products for home use across major retailers nationwide starting Tuesday, September 1, 2026.
The 'Sukiya Gyudon Toppings' Now Paired with Rice in a New Format!
The popular 'Sukiya' series, known for delivering restaurant-style flavors at home, now introduces a bento version. Stock it in your freezer and enjoy the authentic Sukiya taste anytime.
【New Product】Sukiya Beef Bowl Bento – Rice Bowl Size
This beef bowl bento comes in a container with 70g of beef bowl topping and 140g of rice. Simply heat the entire container in the microwave and serve—enjoy the Sukiya flavor conveniently at home. Sized like a rice bowl, it’s perfect as a light snack when you’re slightly hungry, or as a main dish paired with salad or side dishes.
Seasonal Limited-Edition Pizza and Curry Pan Launch!
New seasonal pizza packed with Torona Japan’s expertise, and a curry pan crafted for balanced texture and flavor—delicious for both children and adults—now available!
【New Product】Grati-Chicken Pizza DX (Deluxe)
A rich and savory pizza with a thick, chewy crust generously topped with gratin sauce and teriyaki chicken—now available as a seasonal limited edition. Compared to our standard 10-inch (approx. 25cm) teriyaki chicken pizza, this DX (Deluxe) version contains about 40% more teriyaki chicken and 45% more sauce. Enjoy this exquisite 'feast pizza' featuring a perfect blend of sauce, cheese, spinach, corn, teriyaki chicken, and chewy dough—ideal for autumn and winter gatherings with family and friends.
【New Product】Melt-in-the-Mouth Cheese Curry Pan
A curry pan suitable for both children and adults, combining a crispy outer coating with a soft, fluffy interior, original blend of gooey melting cheese, and a mild curry made with over 30 types of spices. Flash-freezing locks in the freshly fried taste. For best results, finish in a toaster after microwave heating to achieve an even crispier texture.
Five New Items Added to the 'Okazu Zanmai' Series!
Five new, diverse products have been added! Enjoy individually portioned frozen side dishes in trays, perfect for bento boxes or home meals.

Naturally thawable—simply place in a bento box to instantly elevate your lunch.
【New Product】Okazu Zanmai White Fish & Tofu Hamburg
A Japanese-style hamburger, steamed to a tender finish. The patty blends white fish and tofu, with added carrot, onion, and edamame for varied texture.

【New Product】Okazu Zanmai Garlic-Infused One-Bite Creamy Fritter
A creamy sauce made with Hokkaido milk, enriched with a rich garlic flavor, wrapped in a crispy outer coating. The perfect balance of freshly grated garlic and garlic powder stimulates the appetite. Naturally thawable—can be placed directly into a bento box while still frozen.

【About Japan Food Selection】 Japan Food Selection is Japan’s first comprehensive food and ingredient evaluation and certification program, hosted by the Japan Food Analysts Association. The evaluation committee, primarily composed of approximately 23,000 certified food analysts from the association, assesses products with consideration for Japanese people’s delicate taste, preferences, sensibilities, and food culture. The certification process consists of five stages: document review, questionnaire survey, first tasting review, second tasting review, and final tasting review—based on two perspectives: 'consumer viewpoint' and 'food expert viewpoint.'
