Le Cotentin Kanazawa “Kintsuba Biscuit”
An innovative fusion sweet that bridges Western and Japanese confectionery traditions.
Le Cotentin Kanazawa “Kintsuba Biscuit” is an innovative sweet that brings together Kanazawa’s traditional wagashi, kintsuba, and fragrant, creamy handmade butter. It uses cultured butter carefully produced over time in Normandy, one of France’s most renowned dairy regions. The butter’s rich depth and aroma pair beautifully with refined sweet bean paste subtly scented with rum. The moist texture of kintsuba harmonizes perfectly with the tender, biscuit-like dough, creating a delicate, melt-in-the-mouth experience.
The lineup includes Plain, which lets you savor the elegant sweetness of the bean paste and the luxurious butter in their purest form, and Matcha, whose gentle bitterness lingers pleasantly on the palate. Each piece is handcrafted daily by skilled wagashi artisans. Enjoy them individually or choose the popular mixed assortment featuring both flavors.
The packaging, inspired by ume mizuhiki knots-symbolizing both connection and gifting-has also earned praise. This original fusion of Japanese and Western confectionery makes Kintsuba Biscuit an ideal gift for someone special.
