Itani Foods was founded in Niigata, Japan, a region famous for its pure water and premium rice. Our founder, a third-generation baker, saw friends and family struggling with modern dietary sensitivities and wanted to create a treat that didn't feel like a compromise. We spent 2 years developing this formula, sourcing only Niigata-grown gluten-free rice flour and pairing it with 100% pure Japanese honey. Every batch is produced in a GMP-certified facility and tested for 7 common allergens to ensure purity. Since launch, it has consistently ranked in the top 3 for 'gluten-free snacks' in user polls on major Japanese lifestyle platforms, proving that simple, clean ingredients done right can create genuine delight.

Itani Gluten-Free Niigata Rice Flour Honey Wafers (90g) - Light & Crispy by Itani Seika are crafted with a carefully selected blend of ingredients designed to deliver a delightful gluten-free snacking experience. The primary ingredient, Niigata rice flour, is sourced from Japan's renowned Niigata region, known for its high-quality rice; this flour provides the base structure for the wafers, offering a light and crispy texture while ensuring the product is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities. Honey is incorporated as a natural sweetener, imparting a subtle sweetness and floral notes that enhance the flavor profile without overpowering the delicate rice taste, while also contributing to the wafers' golden-brown color during baking. Vegetable oil, typically a blend such as palm or canola oil, is added to achieve the desired crispiness and mouthfeel, ensuring the wafers remain tender yet crunchy. A small amount of salt is included to balance the sweetness and elevate the overall taste, and leavening agents like baking soda may be used to promote a light, airy texture. These ingredients work synergistically to offer a snack that is not only delicious and satisfying but also free from common allergens like gluten, providing a wholesome alternative for health-conscious consumers seeking a crispy treat without compromising on quality or flavor.
