Ingredients and Allergen Labeling
The product description lists the ingredients for each flavor as follows (source: product description on the Rakuten Ichiba product page, viewed October 8, 2026).
- Plain: wheat flour, shortening, sugar, egg, maltose, flour paste, panettone starter, yeast, salt, food made mainly from milk and dairy ingredients, malt extract, edible vegetable oil and fat / sorbitol, emulsifier, flavoring, antioxidants (vitamin E, rosemary extract)
- Chocolate and maple: the listing adds a coloring (caramel color) to the ingredients above
On allergens, the listing states that some of the ingredients contain wheat, egg, milk, and soy. The items contained are the same in both the plain listing and the chocolate/maple listing. However, what we checked is limited to the product description on the product page, and we have not checked the consolidated labeling on the product that actually arrives. If you have an allergy, please be sure to check the label on the product you receive. We have not cross-checked the official website (Onishi Foods), so this is not confirmed.

It does not necessarily reflect the current state of the product | Rakuten customer reviews (viewed October 8, 2026) |
Suitable as a Gift?
On the product page, we could not confirm support for noshi (gift wrapping label), packaging, or message cards. We also could not find any mention of name printing, a gift box, a simple gift box, or gift wrapping (source: Rakuten Ichiba product page, viewed October 8, 2026). The end of the product description lists related keywords such as names of gift-giving occasions, but it is noted that they are not a description of this product.
If you are considering it as a gift, checking the following with the shop before purchasing can help avoid misunderstandings.
- Whether noshi is available, the type of inscription, and whether packaging is possible (not listed on the product page)
- That a specific best-before date cannot be requested (how to tell the recipient the date of the item that arrives)
- That, because it is a made-to-order item, returns and exchanges are not accepted except for initial defects
