The previous president was thinking of creating products using eggs, and taking advantage of the trademark “Kokko,” “Kokko” was born in 1985, along with a boom in fluffy sweets using eggs.
“Kokko” was born in Shizuoka because of the “Abe River”, which was selected as one of the top 100 famous waters of the Heisei era. We use upstream of the Abe River and the Southern Alps to use 30 tons of underground water a day to steam the dough. We are particular about the raw materials we use, and we only purchase as many fresh eggs as we will use that day, and turn them into products on the same day. In addition, a special milk cream made from high-quality water and fresh eggs to match the steamed cake is injected into the dough to lock in the deliciousness. The reason Kokko is so particular about steaming is our desire to create delicious steamed sweets that take advantage of Shizuoka’s delicious water and the flavor of the ingredients. ■Manufacturing process of the popular confectionery “Kokko”
