[Taste of Chuo-ku] Chuo-ku brand sweets to be enjoyed at convenience stores nationwide
Hello everyone. I'm Ino, a class B correspondent.
Setsubun's Ehomaki series has deepened our love for convenience stores, so I would like to talk about convenience stores again this month.
The topic of Chuo-ku brand snacks available at convenience stores has been delivered before, but this time we will report on Seven-Eleven products as of March 2023.
"Sugar Butter Tree" born from "Silver Grape"
The top batter is a sugar butter tree produced by silver grapes.
Grapestone Co., Ltd., which handles brands such as "Silver Grape", "Tokyo Banana", and "Nenrinya", is a Western confectionery manufacturer headquartered in Ginza 5-chome. Ginza Main Store Building "Za STONE" will celebrate its 10th anniversary in December this year.
7 Café Sugar Butter Tree Burngo Tax included ¥289.44
Sales area: Nationwide
7 Cafe Sugar Butter Tree, a product jointly developed by Seven & Eye, has released seasonal flavors in addition to the classic "Scent Bashi Serial & Milky Chocolat". What is currently being distributed is "Yakiringo". Fuji apples from Aomori Prefecture are used for both fabric and chocolate.
Sand of Fuji apple chocolate with sweet and sour cereal dough fragrant with cinnamon powder. It seems that the yakiringo has become a sweet as it is! Because it is a limited product in autumn and winter, I think it will soon be unseeable, but it was a good taste to meet you. We will continue to pay attention to seasonal flavors.
The 75th anniversary of our founding! "Ginza Cozy Corner"
Next is the Ginza Cozy Corner, a confectionery shop that celebrated its 75th anniversary in January this year. It seems that the familiar "Jumbo Cream" was released in 1982 (1982). We will introduce 2 baked sweets from the Ginza Cozy Corner.
7 Café Chocolat pound 192.24 yen including tax
Sales area: Nationwide
Chocolat-colored pound cake made of cacao beans from Venezuela. There are a lot of roast walnuts inside. The orange peel was also contained, so it was a luxurious item than expected.
The other baked confectionery is Madeleine.
7 Fluffy Madeleine with fermented butter 149.04 yen including tax.
Sales area: Nationwide
When you open the seal, it smells very good butter. Is this French fermented butter? The texture was quicker than moist, and it was eaten crispy. Perfect to accompany tea time.
These two items sold as Seven-Eleven's 7 cafe series are OEM products (*), and there is no notation called Ginza Cozy Corner on the surface of the package, but it is a product of Ginza Cozy Corner in the manufacturer's column Can be confirmed.
※OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturing) must undertake production under the brand of other companies.
"Eitarou Sohonbu" with a history from the Edo period
The last one is "Yes, Eitaro." The Eitaro Sohonpo in Nihonbashi was founded in 1818 (1818), and is a long-established Edo confectionery that has been running for more than 200 years.
I would like to introduce some products that make a little sense from a Japanese confectionery shop with a long history. Seven-Eleven's Seven Café, which is brewed with freshly ground beans one by one, has a reputation among coffee lovers, but last year, in collaboration with Eitarou Sohonpo, an item to arrange the drink of this Seven Café was released.
30.24 yen including black honey tax of Eitaro Nihonbashi for Seven Cafe
Sales area: Nationwide
According to the homepage of Eitaro Sohonho, "Black honey using brown sugar from Okinawa is a Japanese confectionery shop that has been developed so that you can feel the richness and umami of the black honey firmly even in accordance with the cafe latte of Seven Cafe." It is. Let's pour it into Cafe Latte immediately (top image).
7 Cafe Ice Café Latte R 220.32 yen including tax
Sales area: Nationwide
I've just poured the whole amount into a regular-sized cafe latte. The brown sugar milk latte is ready! At the bottom is the black pine of Eitaro Nihonbashi.
I stirred it. It also melts well in cold cafe latte. It's rich and sweet!
Although it was developed for Seven Cafe, it can be used conveniently even if it is subdivided black honey. If you are a sweet party, you can also "chase black honey" on Japanese sweets. Who is trying to go to vanilla ice? It's a nice idea. If you have kinako, it's already a fine sweet. Eitaro Nihonbashi's black honey is often placed next to the cash register near the coffee machine, so be sure to look for it.
Anytime, anywhere, Chuo-ku
The products of the Chuo-ku brand introduced today are sold at Seven-Eleven nationwide. Please enjoy taste of Chuo-ku easily anytime, anywhere.
※Even within the sales area, there may be no handling depending on the store.
