Aoshima Rice Crackers

A Nostalgic Yet Refreshing Taste from Tropical Miyazaki, Loved for Nearly 50 Years

Aoshima Rice Crackers were created nearly 50 years ago, after a thinly baked cracker was accidentally dropped into melted butter and turned out to be delicious. This unexpected discovery led to the creation of a confection that has become one of Miyazaki’s best-known local sweets.

The crackers have been enjoyed since the Showa era (1926–1989), when Miyazaki was a particularly popular destination for honeymoon trips. Their appeal lies in the combination of a crisp, Western-style baked cracker and a fragrant cream filling flavored with Western spirits.

Classic and Fruity Varieties

The classic assortment contains two varieties: white cream and nut cream. Their flavors have been carefully refined over the years to suit changing tastes, helping the crackers remain popular across generations.

Another variation, called Fruity, features fruit-flavored cream made with three specialties of Miyazaki: ripe mango, Hyuganatsu citrus, and strawberries. One box offers three different tastes that evoke the tropical character of the prefecture.
