There’s something magical about discovering a new culture through its food, and no country celebrates flavour and tradition quite like Japan. Two subscription boxes—TokyoTreat and Sakuraco—offer unique ways to explore the vibrant and diverse world of Japanese snacks, each with its own special approach.
There is also something really fun about having a box full of goodies show up at your doorstep, especially when you know it’s filled with yummy treats inside.
TokyoTreat: A Taste of Modern Japan
TokyoTreat began in 2015 with Ayumi, a Tokyo native passionate about sharing the joy of Japanese snacks with friends overseas. What started as a living room operation grew into a global community, with millions of boxes sent to over 150 countries.
Each TokyoTreat box is filled with the coolest and craziest Japanese snacks, from unique KitKat flavors to fizzy Japanese sodas and colorful candies. It’s more than just a box of treats—it’s a glimpse into the bold, fun, and modern side of Japanese snack culture. Perfect for adventurers looking to experience the creativity of Japan’s snack scene, TokyoTreat is a vibrant celebration of what makes Japan so exciting today.
Sakuraco: A Journey Into Japan’s Traditions
While TokyoTreat showcases modern snack culture, Sakuraco offers a deeper dive into Japan’s traditional flavours and customs. Launched in 2021 as TokyoTreat’s sister brand, Sakuraco focuses on sharing the roots of Japanese snacks, teas, and sweets.
Each box celebrates craftsmanship, featuring treats made by small, family-owned businesses that have honed their skills for generations. From wagashi sweets to regional teas, Sakuraco brings you a quiet moment of Japanese tradition—perfect for those who love the idea of slowing down and savoring a cultural experience.
Two Boxes, One Mission
Though TokyoTreat and Sakuraco offer different perspectives, their mission is the same: to share the heart of Japan with the world. TokyoTreat is perfect for travelers who love bold, exciting flavors, while Sakuraco is ideal for those seeking an authentic connection to Japan’s rich heritage.
Together, these boxes offer a well-rounded exploration of Japanese culture, giving you the chance to experience both the modern vibrancy and the timeless traditions that make Japan so special.
