    Cashi Cake inc. processes seaweed to operate a high‑end wagashi brand (MISAKY.TOKYO) and a functional beverage brand (OoMee). The company develops seaweed‑based ingredients and B2B products such as functional seaweed powder and patentable technologies. It has achieved notable international exposure (Academy Awards/Emmy pre‑party vendor, KKW collaboration, Bon Appetit coverage) and strong social traction (TikTok ~1.4M followers, ~650M cumulative views). Cashi Cake is pursuing product development, B2B sales, and new patent creation while expanding MISAKY.TOKYO and OoMee. The firm recently filed a joint patent with the Tottori Prefectural Industrial Technology Center for a seaweed membrane that can encapsulate high‑alcohol and low‑pH liquids, aiming to offer edible plastic alternatives. The company frames its growth around global expansion and regional revitalization through local government and research center partnerships.
