Matcha cream is luxuriously sandwiched between rice crackers kneaded with cacao husks (cacao bean skins) and mellow cacao butter with a bubble wrap texture. Sweet and savory cacao goes well with bittersweet Kyoto matcha. We are particular about the crispy texture and carefully hand-baked by craftsmen. The new cacao-scented Kyoto rice cake is recommended for when you want to relax.
〇 Sandwiched with cacao-scented Kyoto rice crackers with special matcha cream.
The matcha cream uses authentic Kyoto matcha. For the shortening, I used organic shortening to create a fluffy cream that feels good in the mouth. It goes well with crispy cacao kyo rice crackers. In addition, by adding cocoa butter, you can feel the deep richness.
〇 Kyoto confectionery "Kameya Yoshinaga" supervises the recipe. Cacao-scented, Kyoto's new souvenir.
Founded in 1803, the Kyoto confectionery chef "Yoshiya Yoshinaga" has developed a brand "Yoshimura Japanese Confectionery" with the concept of "Kyoto confectionery that is gentle on the body and mind". Launched by an eighth-generation couple who create new Japanese sweets using natural sweeteners and naturally-derived ingredients, we supervised an original recipe just for GOOD CACAO that makes the most of the aroma of cacao and ancient wheat without using eggs. Matcha cream is sandwiched between a new Kyoto senmochi with a fresh sweet sweetness, savory flavor, and bubble wrap texture with plenty of roasted cacao added to the slightly sweet rice cracker that has been popular in Kyoto for a long time. It can be used not only as a snack for yourself, but also as a casual gift for your loved ones or as a souvenir in Kyoto, regardless of the season.
〇 The secret of the flavorful deliciousness is two different types of cacao husks.
Cacao Kyosenbei uses two types of cacao husks (cacao bean skins) with different particle sizes. The chip-shaped husk has a delightful texture, and the more you bite into it, the more the aroma of cacao fills your mouth. The powdered husk gives it a sweet, fragrant, chocolatey flavor and taste. Cacao husks are also rich in cacao polyphenols and dietary fiber. It is a material full of charm that is good for beauty and health.
〇 Delicious combination with drinks.
・Sencha
The cacao kyo senbei sandwiched between gently sweet matcha cream and the refreshing flavor and astringency of sencha are a perfect match! A combination that makes you want to eat one and the other. In particular, it goes perfectly with the "cacao sencha" of the GOOD CACAO series.
・Soy milk
The eclectic taste of cacao × matcha is encased by the refreshing richness of soy milk, creating a mysterious deliciousness.
・Cafe latte
The combination with a mild café latte is like a matcha latte. A soothing and luxurious time.
〇 Manufacture of products that are friendly to both people and the environment.
The cacao series, which uses cacao husks (cacao bean skins), is not only delicious, but also upcycling is one of its important objectives. When making bean-to-bar chocolate, cocoa husks, which make up about 30% of cocoa beans, are rarely utilized. Therefore, we are developing upcycled products that find value in cacao husks. By using these products, we contribute to reducing (reducing the amount of wasted waste as much as possible). We believe that purchasing whole cacao will lead to high-quality production.
〇 "GOOD CACAO" series.
The "GOOD CACAO" series brings out the full charm of cacao, such as the soothing aroma of high-quality cacao purchased directly from producers who can see the face, and the unique richness and umami that create depth of taste. Not to mention cacao nibs, but also to the flavorful husk (cacao bean skin) created in the process of making bean-to-bar chocolate. Based on the concept of "all cacao is delicious," we will deliver a "cacao-scented moment" that will relieve your mind and body, which will also lead to cacao upcycling.
