Yokohama Caramel Labo “Yokohama Fresh Caramel Assortment Box”

Fresh caramel carefully made by pastry chefs who stay by the copper pot and slowly cook it down until it reaches double concentration. Once in your mouth, it melts apart like loosening fibers, a texture and flavor only a specialty shop could achieve through repeated recipe testing.

The same uncompromising care goes into the base ingredients as well. The fresh cream is sourced from Hokkaido, and only fresh branded domestic milk is selected.

There are 10 fresh caramel flavors in total. Recommended picks include “Vanilla,” highlighted by the aroma of Madagascar vanilla, “Pink Salt,” finished with mellow, lightly sweet Himalayan rock salt, “Earl Grey,” which captures the appeal of tea leaves as they are, “French Rum Raisin,” rich enough to pair well with liquor, and “Double Nuts,” made with caramelized almonds for added texture.

The assortment box also includes distinctive flavors such as “Raspberry,” “Mango,” “Uji Matcha,” “Cinnamon Apple,” and “Espresso Coffee,” and is sold in two types: a 10-piece box and a 20-piece box.
