A Flavorful Welcome to the New Year with the 'Medetai Nya Box'

Starting from December 18, 2025, Tokyo's beloved snack brand, Tokyo Banana, will launch an exclusive treat for the year-end and New Year season: the 'Medetai Nya Box'. This special box, which showcases a charming “kagamimochi” pose, is the brainchild of a collaboration between Grapestone Co., Ltd. and CHOCOLATE Inc., part of the 'Tokyo Banana World' family.

The Birth of a Cute Character

In July 2025, the adorable character Tokyo Banyana was introduced to the public. Unlike traditional names, it’s not 'banana' but 'banyana' – an endearing twist! Tokyo Banyana and its clumsy companions now star in the new craft cookie brand, Tokyo Banyana Cookies, which proudly opened its doors at Tokyo Station.

Crafting Flavorful Cookies

With a dedication to quality, each cookie has been crafted with meticulously selected ingredients:

• - Point 1: Carefully chosen ingredients tailored to each flavor.
• - Point 2: An intricate baking process that molds the cookies into adorable shapes.
• - Point 3: A delightful crispy texture that enhances the taste.

These cookies, crafted from Hokkaido-made fermented butter, high-quality wheat, and melt-in-the-mouth sugar, reflect a commitment to deliciousness. The cookies are specifically shaped like the fluffy tail of the Banyana character, ensuring each bite is a delightful experience as they boast a satisfyingly crispy texture.

'Medetai Nya Box' Flavors

The Medetai Nya Box promises to surprise your taste buds with three exciting flavors:
1. Banana Butter: Blending the richness of Hokkaido fermented butter with sweet banana, baked to create a light and airy experience.
2. Uji Matcha Azuki Butter: Infused with aromatic Uji matcha from Yanoen, established in 1856, and paired with Hokkaido red beans, capturing the essence of traditional Japanese sweets.
3. Maple Latte: Combining Canadian maple sugar with sweetened condensed milk powder, resulting in a fragrant, delightful treat perfect for the season.
