Coincidentally, the people involved in “Bisco” came to the same goal, and we decided to start full-scale development of the design cream. Their dreams finally came to fruition, and in April of this year, they released their first design cream, the heart-shaped cream “Bisco.” Now, in response to the popularity of the heart-shaped cream, we have completed the second batch of design creams, “Bisco”, a snowman-shaped cream that is perfect for the upcoming season. ■Yukidaruma cream created after trial and error It was extremely difficult to create the shape of a snowman on the factory production line. It was difficult to get the shape of a snowman because the cream was just a circle, and when I put the cream on it, the head deformed and became shaped like a kagami mochi. After creating a considerable number of designs and through trial and error, he came up with the idea that by combining two different cream shapes, one for the head and one for the body, it would be possible to create a cream that resembles a snowy doll with a constricted head and body. I’ve come up with an idea. It was a difficult challenge to create two types of cream shapes on a high-speed production line and create a snowman shape without reducing the amount of cream, but through repeated trial and error, we were finally able to achieve it. Ta. This product is made with love and hope so that you can enjoy “Bisco” with a smile while being delicious and nutritious. “Bisco”, which supports the healthy growth of children, will continue to deliver moments that make children smile. ■Developer comments (Ryuunosuke Ikezawa, Global Brand Business Department, BISCO Marketing Group) In the 91 years since its release, Bisco has continued to wish for the healthy growth of children and has been loved by four generations of parents and children, so we were wondering if we could do something for Christmas, which is a big event for parents and children to enjoy together. Then, by pooling our knowledge with team members and members from other departments, we were able to create a snowman cream visco that is perfect for this season. We would be happy if we could add a little bit of color to everyone’s Christmas with the Snowman Cream Bisco. This winter, peel off two layers of Visco and discover the snowman cream filled with “lactic acid bacteria that reaches the intestines alive” and “love from Visco”! (Yasushi Honda, Finishing Section, Screw 1, Production Technology Section 4, Glico Manufacturing Japan Co., Ltd. Kobe Factory) Heart-shaped cream was born on the 91st anniversary of the release of Bisco. This winter, we have decided to make a snowman cream as our second product following the heart cream. Unexpected issues arose during the manufacturing process, but after repeated trial and error, we were finally able to complete the product. We would like to continue offering Bisco, which you can flip through and enjoy as a child again, for the 92nd and 93rd anniversary, so that you will want to eat more after you eat it, and provide even more value to our customers. ■Product overview
