Suzukikashiho Ito Monaka
A monaka with beautiful, delicate patterns like thread. This is a famous confection from Aiwa Town, Kanagawa, where the meticulous craftsmanship of artisans shines. Suzukikashiho, the maker of Ito Monaka, is located in Hanbara, Aiwa Town, an area that flourished through the production of twisted thread (nenshi). The Ito Monaka reflects the history unique to this silk thread production area, featuring monaka shells shaped like spun threads and thread spools. It has also been selected as a designated famous confection of Kanagawa Prefecture. The crisp monaka shell and the gentle sweetness of carefully cooked bean paste harmonize beautifully in the mouth. It is a deeply flavorful Japanese sweet that softly embodies local history and the delicate handiwork of artisans.
