Marusei Butter Sandwich

マルセイバターサンド

In other words, it is the king of souvenirs in Hokkaido.

“Marusei Butter Sandwich” is now so famous that I don’t know how to introduce it.

I myself have known about this butter sand since I was a child, but I used to avoid it because I was not fond of raisins, but as I grew up, people around me told me that “Marusei butter sandwiches are delicious”  and, when I buy them as souvenirs in Hokkaido, they are bizarrely appreciated.

As I became an adult, I noticed that people around me were unusually pleased when I bought it as a souvenir from Hokkaido, and when I tried it again as an adult, I realized that, yes, it is delicious.

I feel that this has become an iconic souvenir of Hokkaido. Along with Ishiya’s “Shiroi Koibito” it has become a representative of Hokkaido.

Fresh butter cream and raisins sandwiched in a cookie, the taste of the cookie becomes one in the mouth.

It is very delicate and feels like a complete harmony. This is a classic Hokkaido souvenir that many people enjoy. I am convinced that it is the “King of Hokkaido souvenirs” in both name and reality. Ah, it’s delicious.
