How to Choose Souvenirs to Share — 3 Criteria
When choosing souvenirs to hand out at work or to a large group, there are three things to check: whether they're individually wrapped, how long they keep, and how much each piece costs.
Individual wrapping is reassuring both for hygiene and for ease of sharing. Items wrapped one by one are effortless to hand out and easy for recipients to deal with. A shelf life of 30 days or more from production reduces the risk of not getting them all handed out in time, and 60 days or more gives you plenty of leeway even if you buy over a weekend or during a busy period. For souvenirs for the workplace, around ¥100 per piece is a practical guideline. The more people you're buying for, the more this matters.
Classic Individually Wrapped Sweets That Are Easy to Hand Out
Here are the pack sizes, prices and features of three classic sweets available at New Chitose Airport that are perfect for sharing.
Shiroi Koibito (Ishiya) is the quintessential Hokkaido souvenir, ticking all the boxes for sharing: each cookie is individually wrapped, it keeps at room temperature, and its shelf life is about 120 days. It comes in a wide range of sizes, from a 9-piece box for ¥864 (about ¥96 per piece) to a 54-piece box for ¥5,702 (about ¥106 per piece), so you can pick the size to match your headcount. There's also a limited-edition package with an airport design. You can buy it at ANA FESTA Chitose Lobby (domestic 2F, before security) and ANA FESTA Gate 7 and Gate 9 (domestic 2F, after security).
| Pieces | Price (tax incl.) | Price per piece |
|---|---|---|
| 9 | ¥864 | approx. ¥96 |
| 12 | ¥1,144 | approx. ¥95 |
| 18 | ¥1,717 | approx. ¥95 |
| 24 | ¥2,289 | approx. ¥95 |
| 36 | ¥3,801 | approx. ¥106 |
| 54 | ¥5,702 | approx. ¥106 |
Marusei Butter Sandwich (Rokkatei) is a beloved classic, prized for the rich flavor of its butter and biscuit. Each one is individually wrapped, keeps at room temperature, and has a shelf life of about 60 days, making it well suited to handing out personally to a small group. Sizes range from 5 pieces for ¥870 (¥174 each) to 16 pieces for ¥2,800 (¥175 each). You can buy it at ANA FESTA Chitose Lobby and the Gate 7 and Gate 9 stores. Since it costs more per piece than Shiroi Koibito, it's better for sharing within a department or a small group.
Jagapokkuru (Calbee) is a Hokkaido-only potato snack: each bag is individually wrapped, keeps at room temperature, and has a shelf life of about 120 days. It's compact and light, so it's easy to carry. It comes in two sizes: 6 bags for ¥752 (about ¥125 per bag) and 10 bags for ¥1,211 (about ¥121 per bag). You can buy it at Calbee+ New Chitose Airport (domestic 2F, 8:00–20:00), ANA FESTA Chitose Lobby and Sky Shop Ogasawara. Stock can run low, so stopping by in the morning or early on a weekday is your best bet.
Long Shelf Life
Depending on your travel schedule, shelf life may be the deciding factor.
| Product | Approx. shelf life | Storage |
|---|---|---|
| Shiroi Koibito (Ishiya) | About 120 days from production | Room temperature |
| Jagapokkuru (Calbee) | About 120 days from production | Room temperature |
| Marusei Butter Sandwich (Rokkatei) | About 60 days from production | Room temperature |
| ROYCE' Nama Chocolate | About 1 month from production | Refrigerate at 10°C or below |
The mainstays for sharing are the top three items that keep at room temperature. ROYCE' Nama Chocolate has a wonderful flavor, but because it needs refrigeration and keeps for only about a month, it isn't suited to handing out to a large group. In summer especially, it needs to be kept cool.
Best Value (¥100 or Less per Piece)
The more people you're buying for, the more the price per piece matters. Here are options that come in at ¥100 or less.
Shiroi Koibito (9–24 pieces) offers the best value at about ¥95–96 per piece. The 9-, 12-, 18- and 24-piece boxes all work out to ¥95–96 per piece, so you can choose the size to fit your headcount. The 36- and 54-piece boxes rise slightly to about ¥106, but for 30 or more people, buying in bulk makes sense.
ROYCE' Bar Chocolate is a stick-shaped chocolate, reportedly around ¥83 per bar as a reference price (please check in store). It's sold at ROYCE' New Chitose Airport (domestic 2F, 8:00–19:30). Please check the latest price per piece in store.
