A TRANSLUCENT GEM OF JAPANESE TRADITION THAT SPARKLES WITH FLAVOUR AND CULTURE
The name of “Kohakuto” comes from Japanese words “Kohaku” which means amber and “to” means sugar. Kohakuto is traditional Japanese confectionery made from boiled sugar and malt syrup. It’s known for distinctive amber color and transparent appearance similar to amber gemstone. Whilst, the word “Moriawase” means a selection, assorted, or a platter. Hence, “Kohakuto Moriawase” means selections of Kohakuto.

Kohakuto can vary in sweetness and flavours, depending on the type of flavors and other ingredients.
