Our History

Go beyond common sense

40 years ago, Japan used to rush toward economic prosperity with mass production and consumption. During a period of high growth, it was common to produce hard and well baked cookies made of margarine that was cheap and could keep long life of cookies.
On the other hand, biscuits with rich flavor and plenty of butter were expensive and fragile and did not have long shelf life. So there was less opportunity that people could taste those rich cookies at home.

"Production of sensitive cookies with plenty of butter for everyone to try"

It was a big challenge for Yoku Moku that went beyond Japanese confectionary industry's common sense. However, Yoku Moku's founder, Mr. Fujinawa, who was passionate about creating unique confectionary with happiness, decided his life to that. He invented a new way of overcoming many defects of butter to create unprecedented biscuits.

This idea came from a sight of patisserie that our founder saw in France when he visited there: fresh and sweet-smelling confectionaries with artisan's love are directly carried from oven to showcase. Women and children in the neighborhood choose their favorite ones talking to each other and bring it back home carefully with full of joy and happiness.

"There is nothing better than cordial homemade goods". We aim for European traditional baked goods that have been familiar to people for a long time and melded naturally into European culture.

Especially we focus on a cookie that really melts in mouth with rich flavor of butter. This is a textured cookie "Langue de chat" meaning cat's tongue, with fine bubble and elliptical shape.
