Shiroi Koibito (白い恋人, 'White Lovers') is Hokkaido's most famous souvenir — delicate langue de chat butter cookies sandwiching white or milk chocolate. The Shiroi Koibito Park (白い恋人パーク) is the manufacturing facility and museum run by Ishiya (石屋製菓), allowing visitors to watch cookie production, tour historical chocolate exhibits, and decorate custom cookies. The factory is built in European-style architecture with manicured gardens, a chocolate waterfall, and a miniature railway.

The factory tour shows the automated production line where cookies are baked, chocolate is layered, and packages are sealed — 180 cookies per minute. The highlight is the 'My Shiroi Koibito' workshop where visitors decorate cookies using chocolate pens and colored sugar (¥1,500, reservation recommended). The on-site cafe serves chocolate desserts unavailable elsewhere.

인사이더 가이드

**Factory tour highlights:** The production line operates weekdays 9:00-16:30 (reduced weekend production). The automated assembly line is mesmerizing — cookies travel on conveyor belts through baking ovens, chocolate coating machines, and packaging robots. The vintage chocolate equipment museum (third floor) displays hand-cranked grinders, molds, and advertising posters from 1900s Europe. **Cookie workshop:** The 'My Shiroi Koibito' workshop (¥1,500, 50 minutes) includes decorating one oversized cookie with chocolate pens, colored sugar, and edible decorations. The finished cookie is packaged in a custom box and can be taken home or shipped (domestic only). Book 1-2 days ahead online or at entrance counter. English instruction available. **Cafe & desserts:** The Palace Lounge (3rd floor cafe) serves chocolate parfaits (¥1,500-2,200), Hokkaido-milk soft-serve, and seasonal chocolate drinks. The 'Ishiya Premium' soft-serve (¥500) uses Hokkaido Yotsuba milk and is the richest soft-serve in Sapporo. The outdoor terrace overlooks the English rose garden (June-July bloom peak). **Shopping:** The gift shop sells Shiroi Koibito boxes (9-piece ¥800, 24-piece ¥1,800) at factory prices. Also available: chocolate bars, cookies in specialty flavors (matcha, strawberry), and factory-exclusive items (chocolate spread, cookie crumbs for baking). The park is a popular souvenir-buying stop before airport departure.
