This Cuteness Comes with Rich, Juicy Flavor - HANERU's New Rabbit Anko Butter Yaki Born from a One-of-a-Kind Mold

The fermented butter specialty shop HANERU is launching a rabbit-shaped version of its popular "anko butter yaki" at its Kichijoji main store starting February 5, 2026 at 12:00 PM.

The anko butter yaki features fluffy pastry filled with red bean paste, homemade cream, and thick-cut butter - a treat that butter lovers can't resist and one of HANERU's most popular items.

With this renewal, the pastry has been refined to be even lighter and fluffier with improved melt-in-your-mouth texture. One bite releases the rich, juicy flavor of fermented butter. Combined with the gentle sweetness of Hokkaido red bean paste, it creates a melt-in-your-mouth taste experience.

The rabbit shape, which is the brand's symbol, is a unique creation born from artisan craftsmanship. It's a treat that lets you enjoy both Instagram-worthy adorability and authentic, serious flavor.

Commitment to Quality

① One-of-a-Kind "Rabbit Mold"

A casting craftsman created HANERU's completely original baking mold by hand, from design to molding. They focused on achieving rounded shapes and expressions that mass-produced products cannot replicate.

② Light and Fluffy, Yet Rich and Juicy

Designed so that the aromatic fragrance of fermented butter flows out from the pastry. They pursued the perfect golden balance with lightly sweetened red bean paste.

③ Cute Yet Serious

Cute on the outside, serious on the inside. Finished with ingredient selection and baking techniques worthy of a specialty shop.

By warming it slightly to melt the butter into a juicy state, the red bean paste and cream blend together smoothly - please enjoy this supreme "fluffy-juicy" texture.

Recommended as a reward for yourself or as a gift for someone special.
