MEET THE MAKERS: MOMOTARO & MOMOKO

Kamakura's long-established Japanese Tea & Specialty Shop, “Momokado”

After hearing customers repeatedly say, “I want to send this taste to my family overseas,” Momotaro decided to create “a box delivering Japanese flavors to the world = MOMOCA.”

Momoko innocently encouraged him, saying, “I want to make people all over the world smile with sweets!”

And so, the parent and child duo began their journey from Kamakura to deliver deliciousness and happiness to the world.

CRAFTED IN KAMAKURA

Our story begins at "Momokado," our traditional specialty shop in the seaside town of Kamakura. Inspired by customers who wanted to share these authentic flavors with family overseas, we decided to pack the essence of Japan into a box for the world.
