Here’s a super sweet box of animal ‘crackers’ from Japan for this weeks Wrapper Wednesday – coconut flavoured biscuits by Ginbis.
Ginbis (an amalgamation of ‘Ginza’, a shopping district in Tokyo, and the word ‘biscuit’) have been making sweet and savory snacks since 1930.
This ‘Dream Animals’ box is just one of a variety of flavours that the company produce, including vegetable, butter, banana and red bean. Each box is a mini menagerie with sweet, buttery biscuits shaped in the forms of lions, cows, bats, ducks, parrots to name a few, contained inside, with the English spelling of the animals printed on each cookie.
The cookies are very morish and quite light despite the buttery-ness, but what attracted me to these adorable snacks was the box – it’s very kawaii – and just like the product, is really sweet!
I’d love to try the banana ones, so if anyone comes across them do let me know!
