The Luxury of Deep, Rich "Green" from Kyoto Matcha
This product is an American cookie designed for matcha lovers, fully bringing out the natural bitterness and umami of matcha. Generously blended with carefully selected high-quality Kyoto-grown matcha, it delivers an intense aroma from the very first bite. To achieve the characteristic moist texture of American cookies, the production uses a special method of gently mixing the batter without incorporating excess air and baking it for a short time. Despite its satisfying approximately 7cm diameter size, the delicate texture keeps you engaged until the last bite.

Snack Me's Snack Development Standards
To bring out the natural goodness of ingredients, Snack Me carefully considers every aspect from ingredient selection onwards.
We don't use materials we can't explain. We want to create delicious snacks you can enjoy with peace of mind, using only simple and honest ingredients.
This philosophy has led us to establish unique standards that prioritize "what we don't include" as much as "what we include."
① Minimize Use of Additives
As a principle, we do not use food additives listed after the "/" (slash) in food labeling. We trust the natural power of ingredients and base our snack-making on not relying on unnecessary additions.
However, the following may be used. Even in such cases, we limit usage to naturally derived items whose safety has been thoroughly verified.
Leavening agents: Baking powder (aluminum-free), baking soda
Flavoring: Natural flavorings extracted from plants (vanilla extract, bergamot essential oil, etc.)
Citric acid: Derived from plants such as sweet potatoes
② Choose Honest Ingredients
We do not use white sugar, margarine, shortening, dextrin, isomerized sugar, or starch hydrolysates, as these excessively refined and processed ingredients compromise the original flavor and nutrients of natural materials. We thoroughly ensure that the ingredients we use meet this standard, down to secondary ingredients (ingredients of ingredients).
Mainly used sweeteners: Cane sugar / Beet sugar honey / Maple sugar / Maple syrup / Honey / Agave sugar / Agave syrup / Date syrup / Mizuame (non-reduced) / Molasses sugar / Brown sugar / Black syrup / Wasanbon sugar / Glucose / Maltose / Coconut sugar / Raw sugar, etc.
③ No GMO Ingredients
Considering food safety for future generations, we do not use genetically modified organism (GMO) ingredients. Additionally, we do not use "unsegregated" labeled ingredients that may contain GMO crops when they are primary ingredients (within top 3) or account for 5% or more of the total.
④ From Trustworthy, Traceable Sources
Ingredient sourcing prioritizes clear traceability and reliable fulfillment of our quality and safety standards. We value relationships with producers whose faces we can see.
⑤ Never Forget Care for the Earth
We value not only deliciousness but also choices that connect to the future environment. Procurement that contributes to reducing food loss is also an important challenge for us.
We place "being natural," "being delicious," and "being honest" at the root of our snack-making and will continue pursuing food transparency.
Snack Me Recruits Snack Manufacturers Nationwide
Snack Me is recruiting manufacturing partners who share our product-making philosophy and will help deliver delicious snacks together.
We welcome proposals across various categories, including confectionery and desserts.
