Yukiya-Konko
Japanese notation "雪やこんこ"
Cocoa cookie sandwiches “Yukiya-konko” made by Rokkatei.
The package has a cute retro illustration of snow falling, giving it a Japanese look, but when opened, a cocoa cookie appears.
The white chocolate cream inside can be seen through the biscuit. These white dots probably represent snow falling at night. The design of the sweets is also very elaborate.
The cocoa cookie that sandwiches the cream seems to be made with a rather bitter flavor. You can see the texture of black cocoa powder kneaded firmly into the dough.
It contrasts beautifully with the white chocolate cream sandwiched inside.
The bitterness of the cocoa cookie stands out and is in good balance with the white chocolate cream inside. The fairly bitter cookie and the moderately sweet cream go well together, creating an overall mature impression.
