LOST AND FOUND, a general store in Tomigaya, Shibuya operated by Western-style tableware maker NIKKO, will release "TIN & TREATS" on Saturday, December 5, 2026, in limited quantities. The set packs sweets from "AMAZON CACAO," made by chef Tetsuo Ota, into an original storage tin. Pre-orders open at the online store at 12:00 PM on Wednesday, November 25.
The original tin was made together with Kato Seisakusho (加藤製作所), a long-established tin maker whose history goes back to the Meiji era. The sweets come from chef Ota, who explores food cultures and ingredients around the world and handles everything from buying cacao in the Peruvian Amazon to importing it himself. Both makers value working closely with their materials and careful handwork, and "TIN & TREATS" brings the two together.
Once the sweets are eaten, the tin can keep being used as an everyday tool, so the set is also suggested as a gift for someone special.
On release day, LOST AND FOUND TOKYO STORE also hosts "Holiday Table," a Christmas special edition of its "REMASTERED COOKING CLASS" with chef Ota.
About Chef Tetsuo Ota
Born in Nagano Prefecture, Tetsuo Ota went to Italy at 19. After training extensively there, he honed his skills at places including elBulli in Spain and Astrid y Gastón in Peru. He now runs "LA CASA DI Tetsuo Ota" and "MADRE."
He travels to the Peruvian Amazon himself to buy rare native cacao and import it. Through "AMAZON CACAO," chocolate processed locally, he explores the original appeal and potential of the ingredient. While paying attention to producers, the natural environment, and local culture and social issues, he shares new value for cacao.
LOST AND FOUND × Tetsuo Ota: Something That Stays in Daily Life After the Sweets Are Gone
"TIN & TREATS" uses an original storage tin that LOST AND FOUND made with Kato Seisakusho. It is a Japanese-made tin plate can, made carefully by craftspeople one at a time by hand using traditional methods. The finish is unpainted to keep the natural texture of the material, and the tin carries a LOST AND FOUND stamp.
The tin deliberately has no inner lid of the kind used on typical tea canisters, so it can hold tea leaves, coffee beans, sweets, stationery, small tools and more without limiting its use. The tin plate changes its look the more it is used, and it is meant to stay in daily life long after the sweets are gone.
The tins come in three sizes, filled with biscotti, popcorn and cookies respectively, so each tin shape comes with a different sweet.

REMASTERED COOKING CLASS: Chef Tetsuo Ota's Holiday Table Around the World's Food Cultures
"REMASTERED" is a collection that selects and re-edits (remasters) items that make modern life richer. At LOST AND FOUND TOKYO STORE, "REMASTERED COOKING CLASS" is held from time to time, a cooking class where dishes are enjoyed together with REMASTERED tableware.
The final class of the year welcomes chef Tetsuo Ota for a Christmas special called "Holiday Table." Through three dishes made with seasonal ingredients, it explores food cultures he has encountered around the world, from the traditional Peruvian sauce huancaína (ワンカイーナ) and pumpkin gnocchi to a dessert made with panettone, which is popular in Italy during the Christmas season.
Participants learn about cooking techniques that bring out the character of each ingredient and the food culture behind each dish, then enjoy the meal on REMASTERED tableware. Each session is limited to 8 participants and centers on a demonstration by the chef.
Menu
- Seasonal Vegetables with Huancaína: Huancaína is a cream sauce made with chili peppers, born in Huancayo in the highlands of northern Peru. Served with seasonal vegetables, the dish offers a taste of Peruvian food culture.
- Pumpkin Gnocchi with Carrot Gelato and Amaretto: Fluffy pumpkin gnocchi served with carrot gelato that layers the gentle natural sweetness of carrots with the deeper sweetness brought out by roasting.
- Panettone French Toast: Panettone, a favorite in Italy during the Christmas season, is turned into French toast and served with hot chocolate made with Amazon Cacao.
Note: The menu may change depending on ingredient availability.

About LOST AND FOUND
LOST AND FOUND (meaning a "lost and found" office, or 忘れ物保管所 in Japanese) is a general store that carries many everyday items made to be used for a long time. It is positioned as a place to find good things that have been made for years on the strength of solid craftsmanship but got buried among the many products in the world, or were lost in the flow of the times even though they still hold up today. The online store opened in May 2021, followed by the flagship store in Tomigaya in November, and the store marks its 5th anniversary in November 2026.
