Wakamatsu-en Yutaka Okoshi
A traditional okoshi (rice cracker) featuring a crunchy texture and the fragrant aroma of grains. Produced by Wakamatsu-en, an established shop in Toyohashi that has continued since the Edo period. 'Yutaka Okoshi' is a signature confection passed down since the company's founding; it is a prestigious item that was even chosen as an imperial gift from Toyohashi during Emperor Showa's enthronement in 1928. This elaborate okoshi candy is made by binding 'irako' (made from glutinous rice) with syrup, with a hidden center of matcha-infused bean paste. The fragrant, light texture, subtle elegant sweetness, and the bittersweet flavor of matcha harmonize in multiple layers. It offers a simple yet refined taste that evokes a sense of nostalgia with every bite. This is a traditional Japanese sweet that Toyohashi takes pride in, polished by a long history.
