Two Distinct Variations of Crystal Butter Sand

The first variation, "Rose Pattern Rinka," is a visually stunning sweet that resembles a radiant circular flower. It features countless small gems decorating its outline and boasts a top adorned with a harlequin pattern and rose relief, showcasing its artisanal craftsmanship. By incorporating mochi (gyuhi), it introduces a novel chewy texture that adds originality, making it distinct from regular treasures.
2. Rose Pattern Hōkyō (without Mochi)
The second option, "Rose Pattern Hōkyō," takes an elegant oval shape, also embellished with numerous gems and a similar motif on the surface. This version brings to mind an ancient treasure mirror, with a delightful surprise of intensely bitter caramel butter mixture trapped within the crystalline jelly, enhancing the depth of flavors.
