Sasara-ya White Shrimp Rice Crackers
With a single crisp bite, the fragrant aroma of rice and the delicate scent of white shrimp waft through your nose. As you chew, the elegant umami of the shrimp gradually spreads, leaving a lingering impression alongside a light texture. These are crafted by Hinodeya Seika, a company that has been operating in Nanto City, Toyama Prefecture, since 1924. These rice crackers are made using 100% Toyama-grown rice, kneaded with white shrimp that can only be caught in Toyama Bay, and then baked to perfection. Under the brand name "Sasara-ya," this snack combines the tradition of rice cracker making with the 'jewel of Toyama'—the white shrimp. Perfect as a snack with tea or as a souvenir. The light, crispy texture and the savory aroma of white shrimp will make you reach for just one more.

Shiro-ebi Sen (White Shrimp Crackers)
These crackers are made by kneading over 60% white shrimp, which inhabit the deep waters of Toyama Bay, into the dough. Because the shrimp shells are used whole, the aroma is particularly prominent, and the texture is light and crispy. Individually wrapped, making them convenient for sharing as souvenirs at the workplace.
Sasara-ya Shiroebi Sen (Premium White Shrimp Selection)
A premium version of the standard white shrimp crackers, using more than twice the amount of white shrimp and baked into an even thinner dough. This is Sasara-ya's highest-grade product, where the elegant aroma of white shrimp bursts at the moment of a crispy snap.
