Castella Lemon single wrapped piece
№8
Single-Piece Pack

Lemon — 1 Piece

A single-piece option is a rare initiative in export food products. By lowering the absolute unit price, it significantly reduces the purchase barrier — making it much easier for new international consumers to try the product. Distributed across JR Kyushu station shops (Meihinkura) with proven sales at Nagasaki and Fukuoka Airports; pre-launch sampling with international travelers drew enthusiastic praise across nationalities.

Gift Assortment

№3
3-Pack Gift Box Set

Castella Assorts — 3 Boxes

Three individually wrapped packs (3 slices per pack) in one gift box. Individual portioning lets recipients enjoy each pack at their own pace without sacrificing freshness. Our primary proposal pairs two Original (Honey) packs with one Uji Matcha pack, though combinations can be customized within the same product series — a strong performer in overseas gift markets. The box surface itself carries a 3D scan of the actual Castella, so it looks just like real slices laid out inside — a small, eye-catching detail consumers love.

Frozen Specialty Line

Rare Castella cut open
№101
Frozen · Long-Seller Since 2009

Rare Castella (Plain)

A novel texture — fluffy on the outside, rich and meltingly soft within. When cut open, the luscious center flows out for a delightfully appealing presentation. Although the center appears semi-cooked, it is fully heat-treated and not raw. Frozen logistics keep export volume selective, but shipments have a strong track record to Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, China, and Hong Kong.

Taiwan Castella with box
№102
Frozen

Taiwan Castella

The recipe that evolved in Taiwan from classic Japanese Castella, brought back home. Its exceptionally airy, fluffy texture is truly addictive.
