Autumn-only marron and cassis flavors have appeared in the “Chocolate Sand Cookies”, which are popular as souvenirs and gifts. The mellow sweetness of marron and chocolate and the refreshing sourness of cassis make this an autumn-like flavor.
・Rich chestnut and milk chocolate sandwich cookies for autumn souvenirs The ganache in the center uses milk chocolate made from Philippine cacao beans. Rich and full-bodied chocolate that brings out the flavor of marron harmonizes with the sweetness of marron, creating a satisfying taste.
Sand cookies using chestnuts that feel autumn are perfect for souvenirs and gifts. Since one box contains 4 boxes and 8 pieces in individual packaging, it can also be used as a handout gift. ・A special combination of chestnut and cassis. Enjoy cassis accented with chestnuts unique to autumn
Cassis is used as an accent for the crunchy cookie dough on the outside. The sweet and sour taste brings out the sweetness of the marron, giving it a deep flavor. We have adjusted the balance of chestnuts, chocolate, and cassis many times, so that you can enjoy the exquisite balance of the sweetness of chestnuts, the richness of chocolate, and the sourness of cassis. Please enjoy the special combination.
・Enjoy the impression that changes with pairing

Chocolate craftsman team “Minimal” exploring materials and manufacturing methods [Image 6
Minimal visits cacao production areas around the world and craftsmen make chocolate one by one from high quality cacao beans by hand. Patissiers, chocolatiers, and craftsmen who have honed their skills at Michelin-starred restaurants and top patisserie in Japan and overseas are earnestly based on the starting point of “carefully and simply, using the best ingredients to bring out the maximum aroma”. We will make Minimal chocolates and sweets at work.
As for cacao, which is a raw material, we conduct research and lectures on fermentation and drying work locally, and develop flavors that meet high quality and high unit price with cacao farmers. Aiming for sustainable economic self-reliance of the cocoa industry, which has remnants of plantations, we will provide technical support and fair and ethical transactions. In 2019, we conducted a cacao survey in Nicaragua as part of JICA’s ODA feasibility study project.
Received 69 awards for 6 years in a row at international competitions due to the idea of “subtraction” that makes the most of the ingredients and our unique manufacturing method. We would like to deliver “chocolate that leaves a lasting impression” that will make you want to eat again!
