This November, Singaporeans will get a taste of winter delights straight from Hokkaido. SNOWSAND Singapore, a popular seasonal sweets brand, is bringing its first-ever pop-up to Takashimaya’s B2 Food Hall, from 20 November to 26 December 2024 . With a focus on premium ingredients and sustainable farming, SNOWSAND promises to deliver an experience that combines indulgence and care.
A Sweet Success Story from Hokkaido
SNOWSAND is the creation of Shintaro Naganuma , the former founder of the globally popular BAKE CHEESE TART. After spending time in the US studying advanced dairy farming, Naganuma returned to Japan to launch SNOWS, the winter-exclusive confectionery line. Each product reflects his passion for using high-quality, seasonal ingredients from his home region of Hokkaido.
What to Try at the Pop-Up
SNOWSAND Chocolate Sandwich combines crispy cookies with a smooth chocolate center, using **Hokkaido winter milk** and butter. The cookies are baked between hot iron plates to achieve a crunchier texture than traditional baking methods.
- 8 pieces (Shiro/Kuro): $22
- 16 pieces in a Gift Box (8 Shiro & 8 Kuro): $53
SNOWBALL Chocolate Truffle is a decadent treat filled with light Hokkaido cream and coated in smooth chocolate. These truffles offer a perfect balance of creaminess and sweetness.
- 9 pieces: $16
Sustainable Farming with a Purpose
SNOWSAND is deeply committed to sustainable practices. Their dairy products come from free-range cows in Hidaka, Hokkaido, where the animals live stress-free, leading to higher quality milk. The farm also follows circular farming practices—cake crumbs from production feed their chickens, and manure is used as compost to fertilize the farm’s grass.
A Visual and Culinary Delight
The charm of SNOWSAND extends beyond taste. The packaging, inspired by Hokkaido’s winter landscapes, features artwork by the renowned printmaker Kazuyoshi Otani (1933–2014). His design evokes the nostalgia of snowy mountains, making SNOWSAND a perfect gift for the festive season.

With the pop-up running from 20 November to 26 December 2024, this is a limited-time opportunity to experience Hokkaido’s finest.
