Our Commitment to Ingredients
Exceptionally delicious, and gluten-free.
— Carefully selected ingredients —
We choose ingredients that are as gentle on the body as possible,
and make sweets that bring out their natural flavors.
Beyond being exceptionally delicious, we aim for sweets that are kind to the earth and to animals.
For example, all our eggs come from free-range hens.
Wherever possible, our produce is grown in environmentally conscious ways, such as without pesticides or organically.
We examine every ingredient thoroughly before choosing it, always pursuing sweets that are more delicious and more gentle.
— Traditional Japanese ingredients —
Starting with the finest rice flour, we use many superb Japanese ingredients that have nurtured Japan's traditional culture, such as yuzu, organic matcha and adzuki beans grown without pesticides, so that you can enjoy the delicate Japanese spirit in a modern form.
Rice flour
Our rice flour specialist pastry chefs spent years comparing flours to choose the finest one for each sweet.
All our sweets use Japanese rice flour and are made in a kitchen dedicated to rice flour, where no wheat or wheat gluten is ever brought in, so that people with wheat allergies can enjoy them with peace of mind.
Sugar
We use several kinds of sugar to suit each sweet. Our main sugar is cane sugar from Okinawa, rich in minerals such as calcium and iron. The umami of sugarcane gives depth to the sweetness.
We also use organic agave sugar and brown sugar handmade on Negros Island in the Philippines.
Eggs
All our sweets use only eggs from free-range hens.
We use eggs from the free-range "Kaguyahime" hens of Chikujo Keiran in Fukuoka, and egg whites from the free-range "Ecocco" hens of Natura Farm in Saitama.
Delicious eggs, full of gentleness.
