About the Star Products
Salt Vanilla Financier
This flagship item is not just popular; it holds the Guinness World Record™ for the fastest-selling financier in a mere 12 hours. Made from 100% domestic wheat, these financiers are baked to perfection – moist inside with a crispy exterior. Each piece is delicately coated with a sprinkle of sea salt, resulting in an exquisite combination that represents Yokohama Vanilla.
Collaboration with Detective Conan
Yokohama Vanilla has partnered with the animated film
Detective Conan: The Dark Angel of the Highway to release a special edition packaging for the Salt Vanilla Financier. This collaboration features iconic characters like Edogawa Conan against a backdrop of Yokohama scenery, creating a unique collectible for fans of the series.
Salt Vanilla Creamy Sable
The second highlight is the Salt Vanilla Creamy Sable, designed for easy gifting. With a sophisticated taste and eye-catching packaging, it’s perfect for various occasions. The sable provides a unique texture, crumbling at the first bite, followed by a rich vanilla chocolate cream filling that melts in the mouth alongside Andes pink rock salt. Enjoy the luxurious flavor of Bourbon vanilla extract that makes this treat an unforgettable experience.
