I’ve been doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) for less than a year, so I’ve never given a White Day return gift before. But I imagine that, in this kind of world, the most appreciated thing would probably be to simply wrap it up and hand it over as is.
It’s a no-go in romantic relationships, though lol.

If you’re going to give her something, cash is the safest option.
With an older papa (a male supporter), something he gives her thinking it would make her happy may actually be something she has absolutely no use for.
Even if you take the generous route and give her something she says she wants, she might not be able to tell you honestly what she really wants. And if you ask, what she wants may turn out to be even more expensive, haha.
Fuu doesn’t give presents.
Events like Christmas, Valentine’s Day, and White Day don’t work for her—other papas and her boyfriend come first.
Once you give someone a gift, people are greedy by nature: they’ll be disappointed if they don’t get another one, and they’ll start expecting the next gift to be even better. Unless you can keep living up to those expectations...

For something you want but can only buy occasionally—or something just slightly out of reach, in the 10,000-yen range—I think that’s about right for White Day.
If you can’t immediately think of a few gift ideas, giving cash is the safer option.

To give you a serious answer, no matter how much you spend, she probably won’t be all that pleased with something chosen based on an older man’s sense of style.
(That’s why, no matter which route you take, you somehow end up being escorted to the luxury-brand district.)
Tell her, “I’d like to get you a present with a budget of around ¥100,000,” and go shopping together.
By the way, be prepared for her to ultimately ask for something worth ¥400,000.
It’s best to get ahead of the situation by saying you’ll be on a long business trip around Valentine’s Day, so you don’t get dragged into any troublesome events.
That’s all from the papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) front lines.

I think it depends greatly on the nature of the relationship. If you’re giving something out of a sense of obligation, cash is probably the most appropriate choice. If the relationship is more intimate, choosing a personalized gift can show thoughtfulness and reduce the pressure to reciprocate. Of course, whether she actually likes personalized gifts depends largely on her personality.
