A sweet from Santa Planet in Osaka. Its name is a play on a famous Hokkaido confection, and it became a topic of conversation through its connection to Osaka's Yoshimoto Kogyo. White chocolate is sandwiched between langue de chat cookies.

What Japanese buyers say

Reviewers say the joke name, a spoof of Hokkaido's Shiroi Koibito, gets laughs as a gift, and the individually wrapped mitarashi-cream gaufrette is easy to hand out. Opinions on taste are mixed: some enjoy it, while others say the mitarashi flavor is faint and the name is more memorable than the taste.
