These bite-sized biscuits are made using Hokkaido wheat flour and roasted barley flour, giving them a subtle toasted nuttiness that is accentuated by the addition of coconut cream. Additionally, Hokuriku Seika has collaborated with other local artisans to incorporate traditional tastes of Kanazawa, including rice syrup from Tarawaya Confectionary Shop (the oldest in Kanazawa) and brown rice amazake (sweet non-alcohol sake) from Yamato Soy Sauce and Miso Company. The rice syrup gives the biscuits a gentle sweetness while the brown rice amazake and salt koji add a unique fermented umami flavor. 

Founded in Ishikawa Prefecture’s capital city of Kanazawa in 1918, Hokuriku Seika has worked hard to become one of the biggest names in Japan’s biscuit and cookie industry. Affectionately nicknamed “Hokka” after the Hokuriku northwestern region where the company is located, Hokuriku Seika continues to produce its biscuits using the same methods it has for over a century. This means the biscuits still have the same nostalgic taste customers know and love. Hokka carefully selects ingredients and thoughtfully crafts recipes, ensuring its snacks are nutritious and delicious.
