Hananakko by Boyodo: A Chiba Sweet with Buttery, Moist Dough and Milky Sweetness

花菜っ娘

The bright yellow pop-style package is adorable.

I bought a pack of four, although some shops sell them individually for ¥118 each.

Boxes of eight to 24 are also available, making them ideal for handing one to each person in a large group.

Hananakko ingredients

One Hananakko

The best-before date is printed on each wrapper, which is helpful when distributing them separately.
They keep for 40 days at room temperature from production.

The cute girl on the wrapper was apparently modeled after the daughter of Boyodo’s president.

My Review of Hananakko

Inside the bag, the confection is carefully wrapped in gold foil, giving it a special feeling.

Open the foil and a beautifully browned sweet appears.

You can sense its moist texture simply by holding it.

Cross-section of Hananakko

The rich, mellow egg-yolk bean paste blends with moist, butter-scented dough, spreading a milky sweetness through the mouth.

It is good with coffee or tea, but I think it would be especially delicious with milk.

The pronounced sweetness makes a single piece fully satisfying.
It is perfect for children’s snack time or an adult’s break when feeling a little hungry.

Hananakko, a celebrated Chiba confection, is highly recommended both for yourself and as a gift.
