Japanese Taste

Tanuki Manju Japanese Traditional Bite-Sized Matcha Cake (Pack of 3)

$22.89

These matcha Tanuki Manju are a modern take on the soft, melt-in-your-mouth traditional Japanese manju cake. The matcha flavor blends perfectly with the sweet red and white beans, giving a truly authentic Japanese taste.

Saijo City, one of the smaller cities in rural Ehime prefecture, is known for two things: the annual Saijo festival, and Tanuki Manju - a local treat that has been loved by residents and those who visit for over 90 years. The traditional Tanuki Manju features soft, melt-in-your-mouth momoyama dough filled with carefully selected azuki beans that have been made into a sweet red bean paste. Momoyama dough typically consists of sweet white bean paste mixed with egg yolks, milk, and cream - but Tanuki Manju's special process to make their extra soft momoyama dough remains a closely-guarded secret.

Almost all of the manufacturing processess to produce Tanuki Manju are done by hand by local experts who have been doing it for decades. They carefully monitor the temperature and humidity, ensuring that the end result meets the high standards they've held for nearly a century. The secret to Tanuki Manju's irresistible sweetness and perfect moistness lies in the painstaking work that goes into making each one by hand.

This particular version is the matcha Tanuki Manju which uses high-grade matcha powder from Kumakogen-cho in Ehime to impart a rich, tasty matcha flavor. The matcha powder has been kneaded into the momoyama dough giving it a dark green color, the filling is the same high-quality azuki red bean paste that Tanuki Manju uses in all of their products.
