N.Y.C.SAND, the confectionery brand known for drawing long queues at every appearance, is opening a limited-time pop-up at Daimaru Fukuoka Tenjin. Along with its signature items, the pop-up introduces an exclusive seasonal product: the N.Y. Matcha Caramel Sand.
Limited-Edition Product: N.Y. Matcha Caramel Sand
▲ N.Y. Matcha Caramel Sand — 8-piece set, ¥2,160 (tax included)
The N.Y. Matcha Caramel Sand features a caramel made with matcha prized for its delicate, pleasant bitterness, layered with aromatic matcha cookies and white chocolate. The refined vanilla aroma and milky flavor of the white chocolate complement the natural umami and bitterness of the matcha.
The individual packaging draws inspiration from the "Ryusuimon" (flowing water pattern), evoking the serenity of visiting a Japanese dry garden (karesansui) — a design meant to bring a sense of calm and comfort to the recipient.
Regular Products
▲ N.Y. Caramel Sand
The signature N.Y. Caramel Sand is also available in various sizes.
- 4-piece set: ¥756 (tax included)

- 12-piece set: ¥2,268 (tax included)
- 20-piece set: ¥3,780 (tax included)
This classic confection wraps a silky caramel — slow-cooked with fresh cream and brown sugar — in smooth milk chocolate, then sandwiches it between fragrant cookies stamped with an original brand mark. The result is a layered treat where cookie, chocolate, and caramel each melt separately before coming together in a perfect harmony of flavors.
