■ Hōten Manufacturing and OEM by Maruei SeikaWhen you think of Hōten, do you imagine it as "hard and sticky to your teeth"?You may have only eaten Hōten that is chewy. We manufacture Hōten that is not only delicious but also has a crispy texture that is less likely to stick to your teeth.
The taste and texture of Hōten are greatly influenced by the skill of the craftsman. From a production efficiency perspective, increasing the amount of starch syrup allows for mass production, but this makes the Hōten hard. On the other hand, reducing the amount causes it to fall apart, making adjustment very difficult. We are also particular about the temperature at which the candy is cooked. At Maruei Seika, we place two pots side-by-side: one for the candy coating the karinto dough, and one for the karinto dough itself, and adjust them to the very limit. It is only through such craftsman's dedication that delicious and crispy Hōten can be made.
■ The Strength of Continuously Specializing in Hōten ProductionWe have continued to specialize in the manufacturing of Hōten. Therefore, we can produce a wide variety of Hōten flavors in small batches according to customer requests.We have used cherry blossoms and plums for seasonal flavors, regional specialties such as gyokuro (a type of green tea) and black beans, and even unusual ingredients like栃の実 (tochi nuts) and bamboo charcoal. Hōten originated in Osaka and Himeji, so it is not widely produced in Eastern Japan. Furthermore, in recent years, the number of manufacturers producing Hōten in Western Japan has been declining, and there are very few companies specializing in Hōten. Amidst this trend, we have continued to specialize in Hōten manufacturing.With the philosophy of "The origin of confectionery making is to create something that I find delicious to eat," we strive to create products that customers will purchase based on quality, not just price.
