Hida Cookie Sarubobo-chan High

An adorable cookie shaped like the 'Sarubobo,' a traditional protective charm from Hida. The bright red appearance of the Sarubobo is captured perfectly in this baked treat, creating a quintessentially Hida item that brings a smile to your face just by looking at it. In the Hida dialect, 'Sarubobo' means 'baby monkey,' and it has long been cherished as an amulet for safe childbirth, good matches, and protection against evil. Because 'monkey' (saru) sounds like words for 'connection' (en) and 'leaving/departing' (saru), it is also valued as a lucky charm. With a light, crispy texture, it is perfect to enjoy with tea. Why not take home this cute souvenir as a memory of your stroll through Hida Takayama? Its lovely appearance is sure to delight children, making it a fun and unique specialty from Hida to share.
