When people went to Okinawa, they definitely would buy it as a Okinawa souvenir.Chinsukou is one of the traditional sweets in Okinawa. It is made of flower, sugar and lard mainly. It is like a crunchy sweet cookies and good much with Japanese green tea. In acient time, only a royal family and nobles were allowed to eat it when they have some celebrations.There are so many kinds of Chinsukou; cheese, chocolate, purple sweet potato, pine apple, nuts, raw sugar, salt and so on. Now that Chinsukou is famous Okinawa sweet, you can buy it in Tokyo or Kanagawa easily.
