The contest will be held for the seventh year this year. Last year, Kotaro Yokokawa (10 years old at the time) was selected for the Grand Prix from among more than 10,000 entries, and was commercialized on Christmas that year.
The application period is until June 30th. Qualifications for application are elementary school students and younger (1 point per person). The theme of the application is a Christmas cake that I want to eat and want to eat with my favorite person. Applications for illustrations will be accepted from the Ginza Cozy Corner store or the special website. See website for details.
All applicants at the store will receive a "jumbo cream puff", and three people will receive a baked confectionery gift as a "topic award of the week" every week during the contest.
* Stores that handle fresh cakes (excluding some) are eligible for over-the-counter applications.
