Frequently Asked Questions
What does Dagashi mean? Is it a brand?
Dagashi is not a brand but a concept that Japanese snack companies have used to reflect a specific kind of fun but inexpensive candy. Interestingly, the 駄 in “dagashi” originally had a negative meaning, as it translates into “negligible” or even “wasteful,” even though now it is said with plenty of affection. The 菓子 part, “Kashi” or “Gashi,” refers to a snack.
Who might enjoy Dagashi candy?
There is no age when you’re too old to enjoy the creative and constantly changing varieties of Japanese dagashi, which means it’s just a matter of finding your favorites - or opting for flavors hard to find outside of Japan, like yuzu (a citrusy fruit) or special matcha creations. And because dagashi is frequently created for things like a new anime season’s release or a special time of year, they can be especially thoughtful items to add to a gift or “just because” care package.
What other kinds of Japanese snacks do you offer?
Do you prefer savory foods? No problem! We have a wide array of savory Japanese snacks and even ready-to-eat foods, too, that can be very original. For example, at any given time, you might find yourself ordering premium mozzarella and camembert cheese to create your own miniature charcuterie board with authentic rice crackers or delicious steak-based snacks for the perfect savory treat.
