Koikeya Launches "Not Nama-Choco, But Nama-Chee" Non-Sweet Valentine's Campaign for Savory Gift Seekers

Koikeya Co., Ltd. (President: Akira Sato) is running a special SNS campaign from January 28 to February 3, 2026, for its "Nama-Chee" brand—a new-sensation reward-style pastry featuring creamy cheese filling wrapped in crispy puff pastry. Participants can win a gift box containing two products: "Nama-Chee Melty Cheese" and "Nama-Chee Truffle Cheese."

In recent years, the ways people enjoy Valentine's Day have diversified, and there's growing demand for "non-sweet gifts" from those who want to give something to partners who don't like sweets or are looking for gifts that pair well with alcohol. "Nama-Chee" is a "reward pastry" characterized by its crispy, airy puff pastry, the rich aroma of cheese that spreads the moment you open the bag, and a smooth texture reminiscent of fresh cheese. With this campaign, Koikeya proposes "Nama-Chee" as one of the options for "non-sweet gifts" on Valentine's Day, offering a "Nama-Chee Gift BOX" containing a total of 3 boxes—two boxes of "Nama-Chee Melty Cheese" and one box of "Nama-Chee Truffle Cheese"—to 50 lucky winners.
