Renowned for its unique approach to butter sandwich cookies, PRESS BUTTER SAND offers a delightful range that promises to redefine indulgence.
Crafted for Perfection
PRESS BUTTER SAND stands as a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and innovative industrial design. Its essence lies in small-lot manufacturing, focusing on quality over quantity. Each cookie is baked using a proprietary pressing machine, a technique that ensures both sides are baked simultaneously, creating a distinct texture and aroma that sets PRESS BUTTER SAND apart.
The heart of each cookie is its double-layered filling – a harmonious blend of rich butter cream, crafted with fresh Hokkaido butter, and a layer of smooth butter caramel. This combination not only captures the authentic flavor of butter but also reflects the brand’s dedication to quality.
PRESS BUTTER SAND’s dedication shines in its commitment to fine ingredients and craftsmanship. Each cookie, perfected through trial and error, delivers a unique taste experience. Embracing playfulness and constantly seeking new challenges, the brand continually evolves in its approach.
Unveiling the Masterpiece of Confectionery Design
Highlighting the essence of PRESS BUTTER SAND’s meticulous craftsmanship and innovative design is the ‘Hasami-yaki’ method. This technique not only eliminates excess oil but also ensures a perfect balance of texture and flavor. The original blend of two types of flour, coupled with the abundant use of fresh butter, results in a uniquely rich flavor profile.
This harmonious blend creates a sensory experience that elevates the simple joy of biting into a cookie. The cookies are also ingeniously shaped like a box, preventing the soft filling from oozing out. Intricate striations on the inside not only hold the filling perfectly but also make the cookies easy to break and savor. It’s a masterpiece of confectionery design designed for your maximum enjoyment.
Made with top-quality ingredients, these cookies aim to redefine the classic butter sandwich cookie. Additionally, there’s a variety of flavors offered, each providing a unique and enjoyable tasting experience for every customer.

The Origin Story
The story began at Tokyo Station, where the tradition of pressed butter sandwiches started. Their process, known as ‘Iron, Press, Heat,’ involves using an iron plate to hold the dough, pressing it, and then baking with heat. This method combines old techniques with new technology, a signature approach of PRESS BUTTER SAND.
Each cookie reflects this tradition, mixing age-old methods with modern flavors. The essence of Tokyo Station’s craftsmanship is in every bite, showing the brand’s commitment to quality.
As PRESS BUTTER SAND expands from Tokyo to Singapore, each cookie brings a piece of this history, offering a simple yet rich taste experience.
