The first time I tried Sugar Butter Sand Tree, it really left a strong impression. The cookies are crisp, fragrant, and light, with the buttery aroma and white chocolate blending perfectly. They’re sweet but not overly rich, and every bite feels like a little happiness. Highly recommended as a Japanese souvenir.

Miyakojima’s Yukishio “Yukishio Sand“
Yukishio Sand is a popular Okinawan souvenir made with Yukishio-a fine powder salt crystallized from seawater drawn 22 meters underground in Miyakojima. This unique salt retains the natural minerals of the sea, giving it a distinctive mellow flavor.
Miyakojima’s Yukishio Sand cookies have a crisp texture and a rich milky flavor. The filling has a subtle Yukishio salt note, making it sweet without being too heavy, with a nice balance of salty and sweet layers. They taste even better with coffee or tea. A highly recommended Okinawan souvenir.
