Chidori Manju Sohonten Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture; Representative Director: Koji Harada) will renew the packaging for its flagship product "Chidori Manju" for the first time in 8 years, and for "Tirolian (Long/Hat)" for the first time in 20 years, starting from April 1, 2026. With a history of approximately 400 years since its founding, we have re-examined "in what situations and for whom our customers choose our sweets" and evolved the packaging to suit those sentiments.
New packaging for Chidori Manju
Chidori Manju, worthy of your wishes
The concept is "An auspicious item always close at hand, comforting the heart." We redefined its value as an auspicious item that accompanies your daily life, such as on days when you wish for your family's healthy growth or for celebrations of life's milestones. The packaging uses genuine "washi" (Japanese paper), expressing the warmth of our handcrafted manju with a soft texture that is felt the moment you hold it. A gracefully shining "warm golden chidori" (plover) is placed in the center, updating it to a dignified appearance suitable for gently embracing customers' "prayers" and "wishes."
New packaging for Tirolian
Tirolian, worthy of your gifting sentiments
That crispy cookie and smooth cream, familiar since childhood. The packaging for the popular gift items "Long" and "Hat" has been renewed. While retaining the distinctive "three lines" that have been loved for a long time, calm pastel colors have been adopted. The box and wrapping paper feature a classical design based on white and gold. It has been reborn into an elegant finish suitable for gifts.
