Morihachi Homemade Monaka 'Shiro no Ishi' (Castle Stone)
Morihachi's homemade monaka, looking just like a reflection of the stone walls of Kanazawa Castle. The name 'Shiro no Ishi' is inspired by the stones that have endured hundreds of years of wind and snow to continue supporting Kanazawa Castle today. The monaka shell is a fragrant wafer made from Hokuriku-grown glutinous rice, and the bean paste is packaged separately. By inserting the paste yourself just before eating, you can enjoy the crispy texture of the shell at its most delicious state. The moist sweetness of the plumply cooked domestic adzuki bean paste and the toasted aroma of the shell dissolve together in a single bite. This is an enjoyable item designed so you can taste freshly made monaka at home. Please give it a try.

Morihachi Hebi-dama Monaka
A monaka shaped after Morihachi's family crest, 'Hebi-dama' (Snake and Jewel). Featuring an auspicious design of a snake holding a jewel in its mouth, it consists of elegant bean paste tucked inside a fragrant, baked wafer. This is a signature confection unique to Morihachi, embodying both the prestige inherited as the official confectionery maker for the Kaga Clan since 1625 and a sense of playful creativity.
