A 1-minute walk from Ben Thanh Market in Ho Chi Minh City. Bought some traditional sweets at YUGOC♪

I visited the souvenir shop "YUGOC," which is just a 1-minute walk from Ben Thanh Market in Ho Chi Minh City.
YUGOC is a Vietnamese brand that offers sweets as souvenirs, inspired by the local specialties and traditions of Vietnam.
Our directly managed stores are only in Ho Chi Minh City, but you can also find our products in souvenir shops in Hanoi, Da Nang, Hoi An, and more.

The location is near Ben Thanh Market on a main street called Le Loi Street, but instead of being right along the street, it is located inside the building. Please use this image as a reference to find the entrance.
As soon as you step inside, you will see the YUGOC shop right away.

The YUGOC shop is quite small, so shopping will be over quickly. However, as this directly managed store is currently the only place in Ho Chi Minh City where you can buy all types of YUGOC products, we recommend visiting if you want to find a wide variety.

Macadamia nuts. They are sold in almost any souvenir shop in tourist areas, but YUGOC has a lovely package design.

Raw honey (unheated). 100% freshly pressed. We offer three varieties: coffee, longan, and rambutan. Most Japanese travelers seem to buy this.
It is also frequently featured on travel agency blogs and tourism information websites.

This is what personally caught my eye the most. Cashew nuts in three flavors: coffee, wasabi, and tom yum kung. Above all, the package design is incredibly stylish, making them perfect as a souvenir.

This is what the inside looks like. Each piece is individually wrapped, with a total of 6 packs. It's also great for the workplace. When I was there, a Korean man was buying about 5 boxes all at once.

This was also delicious. It's a traditional Vietnamese sweet, and while it is called 'baked crepe' in Japan, apparently it is known as 'baked waffle' in English.
These are cookies with a light, fluffy texture, featuring many layers of thin, crepe-like dough.

There were also many other souvenirs that are uniquely Vietnamese, so travelers looking for gifts should definitely stop by. Highly recommended!
