Yukizuru (Haskap)

Harmony of butter and haskap sandwiched in a Bouchée

When we think of souvenir sweets in Hokkaido, a confectionerym, Morimoto is always first mentioned. The confectionery has a long history, established in Chitose City in 1949. Since “Yukizuru” was started selling in 1972, it has been Morimoto’s best-selling confectionery and has been loved for a long time.

I knew the buttercream one, but I didn’t know the other one, a Haskap flavor.

The crust is crispy, fluffy and light, and quite large Bouchée

Haskap berries are similar color to blueberries, but the shape is oval and have a more acidic than blueberries.

The cream balance between sweet and sour is perfect among the mild butter and sour haskap. It is delicious and goes well with the dough of the Bouchée. Morimoto is a confectionery using the most of Hokkaido’s specialty fruit, and they are indeed a master of perfection.
