Product information
About
A crisp, crumbly Japanese butter biscuit with coconut milk powder in the dough, which gives it a light coconut aroma rather than a strong coconut taste. Think of a plain butter biscuit for tea, with a hint of coconut in the background and no coconut flakes on top. Buy it if you like a buttery biscuit and want to try this year's limited Choice; if you want a biscuit that tastes loudly of coconut, this is the wrong box.
On the pack: チョイス ココナッツ (choice coconut).
What you're getting
- Fourteen rectangular biscuits stamped CHOICE, in seven sealed packs of two.
- The texture is crisp and then crumbly.
- The coconut is mild, more a smell than a taste, and people divide over it: some miss it, others like it that way.
- It is a limited 2026 summer edition, sold only until the stock runs out.
- Allergens: egg, milk, wheat and soy. Read the pack's own label before you rely on ours.
- Also on the label: coconut milk powder; coconut is not a declarable allergen in Australia, so it is not in the allergen list above. The shortening and margarine may be made with animal fat.
It is a crisp biscuit, not a soft cookie. Morinaga's regular Choice is plain butter; this box is the coconut edition, in the same CHOICE-stamped shape.
Ingredients
Wheat flour (made in Japan), sugar, shortening, margarine, egg white (contains egg), butter, coconut milk powder, salt
raising agent, flavouring, emulsifier (from soy), sodium caseinate.

In their own words
What Japanese buyers say
- What they like
The texture is crisp and crumbly.
食感はサクサクホロホロです。
from mognavi, a Japanese food and drink review site
- What they grumble about
But the coconut flavour, the whole point, just isn't there.
でもさ、肝心のココナッツ味がなし。
from mognavi
- What they like
The coconut is just a hint, so it has none of that distinctive quirk; I found it easy to eat.
ココナッツ感は風味程度なので、独特のクセがなく、食べやすいと思いました。
from mognavi
- What they grumble about
I'd been looking forward to it, so I ended up thinking: is this really that different from the regular Choice?
期待してたから、普通のチョイスとそんなに変わらない？って思っちゃいました
from mognavi
- What they like
The slightly crunchy texture is addictive.
ややザクザクめな食感がやみつきになります。
from mognavi
- What they grumble about
Choice itself is tasty, so finishing them is no hardship, but I wanted more coconut.
チョイス自体おいしいので消費に困ることはないですが、もっとココナッツ感が欲しかったです。
from mognavi
- What they like
The coconut doesn't overpower, so it's easy to eat and was really delicious!
ココナッツの主張が強すぎず食べやすい味わいでとても美味しかったです！
from mognavi
- What they grumble about
It was a coconut Choice where you don't taste much coconut.
それ程、ココナッツは感じないココナッツチョイスでした。
from mognavi
- What they like
Where Coconut Sablé, another Japanese coconut biscuit, is light and crisp, Choice is more of a cookie-style biscuit; besides the comforting sweetness, a buttery(?) richness lingers.
ココナッツサブレはサクサク軽い食感のビスケットなのに対し、チョイスはクッキー系ビスケットといったた印象で、ホッとする甘さに加えてバター？のコクが余韻に残ります。
from mognavi
- What they grumble about
Fine as a biscuit, but you have to go searching for the coconut that's in the product name.
ビスケットとしては良いが、製品名にあるココナッツは どこだ？と捜索するレベル。
from monolog, a Japanese review site
- What they like
The biscuit is light, crisp and then crumbly.
ビスケットはサクッホロッっとした軽い食感
from mognavi
- What they grumble about
This is tasty too, but the plain butter Choice is still the best, I think.
これも美味しいけど、バター味のチョイスが一番いいかな。
from monolog
- What they like
The coconut flavour is refined and really delicious.
ココナッツの風味が上品でとても美味しいです
from monolog
- What they grumble about
You can't taste much coconut, but it's good as a biscuit.
あまりココナッツは感じられないけど、ビスケットとしては美味しいです。
from monolog
- What they like
It tastes similar to Coconut Sablé, a Japanese coconut biscuit.
ココナッツサブレと似た味です。
from monolog
- What they grumble about
Not much coconut, so a bit of a let-down, but it's light and easy to eat.
ココナッツ感が少なくちょっと期待外れだが、 あっさりして食べやすい
from monolog
- What they like
Personally I like this one better than the butter one.
自分はバターよりこっちのが好き
from monolog
- What they grumble about
It ruins what's good about Choice.
チョイスの良さが台無しだ。

- Founded 1899
Choice has been Morinaga's butter biscuit since 1937, sold beside Marie, its thin milk biscuit, and Moonlight, its egg cookie, in the same boxed range. For summer 2026 Morinaga worked coconut milk powder into that same dough.
