4. Tokyo Banana Haneda Airport Limited Honey Banana Flavor

The long-loved Tokyo Banana actually has a limited Haneda Airport version. On the bottom left of the box, it says “Haneda Airport Limited” in Japanese, and there's a cute illustration of a tiny airplane flying behind Tokyo Banana—it's adorable!

These charming sponge cakes are filled with banana custard and honey. Each piece is individually wrapped, making them perfect as souvenirs for friends.

We tried it and the honey flavor is faint but subtle. It has enough sweetness to enjoy with tea or coffee, and you can also eat it chilled for an even tastier experience.

*Flying Tokyo Banana Honey Banana flavor, “Miitsuketa” 4 pieces 560 yen, 8 pieces 1,080 yen, 12 pieces 1,595 yen).

5. Shiseido Parlour La Ganashe Petit

Although Shiseido is famous for cosmetics, their Western-style restaurant Shiseido Parlour also offers very popular sweets and confections. The Haneda Airport-limited souvenir sold by Shiseido Parlour is this “La Ganashe Petit.”

With a sophisticated design featuring a contrast of black and red, decorated with rose illustrations, it exudes a calm and refined atmosphere.

When you open the packaging, you’ll see small chocolate crunches resembling lipstick, making it a luxurious souvenir that feels as if you're in Ginza’s main store.

It comes in two flavors: “cafe au lait” and “chocolate strawberry.” The crispy chocolate envelops each flavor, creating a fun texture with each bite.

*Shiseido Parlour La Ganaashe Omiyage, 6 pieces for 458 yen, 16 pieces for 1,080 yen, 32 pieces for 2,160 yen.

6. Mameya Kanazawa Ban-kyu: Gold Leaf Castella

Made with high-quality egg yolks and lavishly topped with gold leaf, this Gold Castella is a luxurious souvenir from Kanazawa, famous for its gold leaf.

The packaging features a plane flying against a blue sky with white clouds, wrapped in gold paper exclusive to Haneda Airport. It exudes elegance and a gentle, Japanese aesthetic.

The Gold Castella in the photo is airplane-shaped and can only be purchased at Haneda Airport. When you open the box, a beautifully gold-leafed castella appears.

From the top, you can see the airplane illustration hidden underneath. It’s fine to eat it as is, but since it’s cut into slices that can be easily removed, trying to carefully shape and take out the airplane form is a fun challenge.

Unfortunately, I myself experienced a little mishap trying to peel off the thin paper from the bottom as instructed— the castella flipped over and all the gold leaf stuck to the paper.

Be very careful because gold leaf adheres strongly to paper and cannot be removed afterwards.

The castella itself has a moderate moist texture. It also contains honey, which enhances the aroma and sweetness as you chew. Pairing it with Japanese tea would make it even more delicious.

7. Cloud-Shaped Dorayaki

Are you a fan of Doraemon? Wouldn't you love to bring home Doraemon’s favorite snack, dorayaki?

At Haneda Airport, they sell a slightly unique version! Usually, dorayaki is round, but this product is folded in half, with cloud-like illustrations on the outer surface, called "Dorayaki Cloud" (Hane Gumo).

The “Dorayaki Hane Gumo,” a collaboration between Haneda Airport’s operating company, Japan Airport Terminal Co., Ltd., and the traditional Japanese confectionery shop Kano Shōjuan from Shiga Prefecture, offers a delicious and smooth texture.

What makes this dorayaki different from traditional ones is the chewy outer shell. The soft, cloud-like dough encases plenty of azuki beans from Hokkaido.

The sweet red bean paste (anko) is quite mild, making it perfect to enjoy with coffee or tea for an even more delicious experience. (5 pieces 1,080 yen, 10 pieces 2,160 yen)

8. Maple Langue de Chat TOKYO

Inside a simple, elegant package are chocolate cookies topped with various flavorings—three different varieties with toppings like seasonings.

This confection was developed in collaboration with Hideyuki Yamamoto, who has served as head chef at state dinners for U.S. presidents, and Japan Airport Terminal Co., Ltd.

What’s surprising is how they enhance flavor by adding rare seasonings such as Maldon sea salt, sansho (Japanese pepper), and fennel seeds to each type—matcha chocolate, white chocolate, and yogurt chocolate.

The delicate taste of matcha chocolate is topped with actual sansho, creating a distinctly Japanese flavor profile.

My favorite combination is white chocolate with Maldon sea salt—the perfect balance of sweetness and a slightly salty note that’s addictive. Our Japanese editor at MATCHA also enjoyed the “yogurt x fennel seed” flavor. (6 pieces 1,080 yen, 9 pieces 1,620 yen, 18 pieces 3,240 yen)

9. Pokémon Nut Cookies

Just seeing the cute Pikachu tin makes you want to buy and start collecting it!

This Pokémon cookie gift box contains four types of bite-sized Western-style cookies. Mainly nut-flavored, so you can enjoy them without getting bored. (180g 1,296 yen / 270g 1,944 yen)

10. Kamakura Half Moon Kamakura Caramel Sandwich

This adorable-looking souvenir, Kamakura Caramel Sandwich, was launched in 2023 exclusively at Haneda Airport by the long-established souvenir brand Kamakura Goro Honten, which is well-known throughout Kamakura.

Its rich texture, with a slightly bitter caramel, chocolate, and crunchiness, makes it irresistible—you’ll find yourself reaching for another piece. (10 pieces 1,458 yen)

11. Toasted Butter Sand Gift — Fermented Caramelized Butter

The Sugar Butter Sand Tree is a well-known souvenir brand that you can find at many train stations, but the fermented caramelized butter flavor is exclusive to Haneda Airport!

There is also a limited gift box that combines the classic chocolate sand flavor with the summer-only white peach chocolate sand, making it a special item. Its crispy texture and fragrant butter aroma make it an irresistible treat, and it’s a popular Tokyo souvenir for many people. (12 pieces 1,836 yen)

12. NEWYORK PREFECT CHEESE

One of Tokyo’s most popular souvenirs, this cheese sweet was supervised by three renowned cheese experts who are active worldwide: Bill Joseph, former pastry chef at the White House; Miyuki Murase, touted as the world’s top cheese connoisseur; and Rodolphe Munier, a French MOF cheese craftsman.

The combination of crispy cookies and rich yet delicately balanced cheese creates a flavor so addictive that once you start eating, you can't stop—so much so that calories might not even matter!

It is available only at Tokyo Station, Keio Shinjuku, Tobu Ikebukuro, and Haneda Airport. Although not exclusive to Haneda Airport, purchasing at Haneda is recommended because it’s less inconvenient to carry around, and lines often form at Tokyo Station.

Book a car charter service (Tokyo/Osaka/Kyoto/Fukuoka/Hokkaido, etc.)
