Sugomori - Double-Layered White Chocolate from Nagano Prefecture

Sugomori - Double-Layered White Chocolate from Nagano Prefecture
A luxurious double-layered white chocolate treat with a whipped cream-like richness.

What Makes Itochu’s Sugomori Special?

Inspired by eggs in a nest, the double layered luxury white chocolate is rich and divine. 
Ordinary white chocolate tastes like condensed milk, but Itochu’s premium version is more akin to whipped cream.
This is why many happy customers enjoy this Itochu’s Sugomori, despite not being a fan of white chocolate typically.
Inside, you will find a distinct yolk flavoured bean paste that is actually made using fresh egg yolks.
It is moist and fine in texture where the artisanal nature of the sweet comes to light.
Together, they create a perfect harmony where the subtle undertones of the yolk bean paste contrast the sweetness of the white chocolate.

Personal Blend of White Chocolate

They use specially adjusted high-quality white chocolate, so the taste is significantly different from the white chocolate commonly available in the market.
Furthermore, they select the type of white chocolate that melts smoothly in the mouth during the winter, and one that doesn't melt at room temperature during the summer, adjusting to the seasons.

Recognised for its high quality as a wagashi (Japanese confectionary), this product has won the honorary Gold Award at the 20th National Confectionary Exposition and also being  selected for the Shinshu Brand Award in 2013.
