Mori-Isseido Confectionery
If you've never tried karinto manju, this is the place to do it!
Regardless of it's origin, the sweets and pastries here are all prepared at a high level of skill and passion.
The pride of the shop has to be their karinto manju. These manju are made with brown sugar, and fried after steaming, giving them a delightfully crispy texture. The crispiness combines with the dark sweetness of the brown sugar and the sweet bean paste filling for a combination of flavors and textures that spread across the tongue in waves. Don't be fooled by their simple round shape; these manju have been a local staple for years and even draw in fans from other prefectures.
Don't miss their steamed cream puffs either! Filled-to-order with their specialty custard cream, they stay crisp on the outside and soft on the inside for the perfect creamy, puffy experience.
For a Summer treat, the staff also recommends the warabi mochi.
