Tanuki no Ponpokorin
Just looking at its plump, round form will bring a smile to your face. 'Tanuki no Ponpokorin' is a baked confection motified after the Shigaraki-yaki tanuki (raccoon dog). When you think of tanuki, you think of Shigaraki-yaki. Shigaraki in Koka City is a pottery village counted among Japan's six ancient kilns, famous for the charming tanuki figurines lined up in front of shops. As a representative humorous souvenir of that town, it is a beloved companion for strolling through Shigaraki. As the name 'Ponpokorin' suggests, it has a round, cute appearance. Yet, its heartwarming and gentle flavor is equally captivating. It is the perfect item as a souvenir for children or as a memento of your visit to Shigaraki.
