i saw this at nishijo fish market in sapporo city.

bought 2 boxes for 840 yen each yet to try. too much food in bag.

3X kitakaro baumkuchen
3X furano jam factory jams
2X le tao chocolates
lots of ika-meshi

one of the better commercial chocolates you can get in Hokkaido (better than Royce) is from Le Tao. They use better grade cocoa beans and you can really relish the difference. Alternatively, visit the many specialist chocolatiers all around major cities of Japan, they are all excellent, much better stuff than you can find in SG. Don't settle for those things you find at the airport, etc, they are pumped full of preservatives and palm oil.

For biscuits (like shiroi koibito, which imo is overrated), Rokkatei and Kitakaro are by far the benchmark brands in Hokkaido, not including smaller companies that produce small batches of designer confectionary. Rokkatei's Marusei Butter is, to this day, the most delicious biscuit i've ever tasted. It's an explosion of delicate small-crumbed buttery shortbread, smooth and whispery white chocolate and tiny bombs of rum-soaked raisins. It's an art piece in your mouth. Each piece costs about $2 but it's so worth it! The sad thing is its shelf-life of merely 3 days...

i just tried this...very nice!
