Hakueido Yanagimachi Honten is a long-established store that has been in business for over 100 years, selling both Japanese and Western confections.
Its main products are wagashi associated with Kannonji Temple, the most popular of which is the “Meika Kannonji”.
It is no exaggeration to say that this product is a standard souvenir for locals. It is made by combining special Kimi An (sweet red bean paste) and Western-style dough, and when you put it in your mouth, even its subtle aroma melts into your mouth.
It is so delicious that even people from outside the city come all the way to buy it, making it a firm favorite.
