A revolutionary dried sweet potato bar: ‘BENI BITES’

What is BENI BITES?

‘A revolutionary dried sweet potato bar*’—what if we could make dried sweet potatoes, a traditional Japanese health food loved by everyone from children to adults, even easier to enjoy? BENI BITES was born from this very idea. We carefully dry ‘Beniharuka’ sweet potatoes—roasted for a long time over the lava of Sakurajima in Kagoshima—and use a unique process to lock in their sweetness and nutrients, crafting them into bars.

Making the Dried Sweet Potato Bars

High-quality ‘Beniharuka’ sweet potatoes, grown in the lush natural soil of southern Kyushu, are matured for over 90 days. We roast the sweet potatoes slowly at a low temperature using the lava from Sakurajima, the symbol of Kagoshima Prefecture. We then carefully turn these roasted sweet potatoes into ‘dried sweet potatoes’ and, using our unique method, maximise their nutritional value and sweetness to create these bars.
