This confection features "Milk Bean Paste," a blend of "milk and butter," which Eiichi Shibusawa first experienced in Paris, France, in 1867, combined with traditional Japanese white bean paste. Made with high-quality ingredients and carefully kneaded, it offers a refined sweetness.
The confection is baked with "oatmeal," which Eiichi Shibusawa loved, kneaded into a thin dough.
Furthermore, each confection is inscribed with one of Eiichi Shibusawa's hundred maxims. By scanning a QR code, you can access each teaching, making this a manju (a type of Japanese confectionery) where you can learn while you eat. The maxims are also available in English and Chinese for your enjoyment.
The flavor of the bean paste is "Sakura Milk Bean Paste," reminiscent of the cherry blossoms of Asukayama in Kita-ku, Tokyo, where Eiichi Shibusawa lived in his later years. You can enjoy the taste of the Meiji Restoration, incorporating the Western flavors (milk and butter) that moved Eiichi Shibusawa when he first tasted them. This is a Japanese confection that is like a Western sweet and makes an excellent gift.
