Sentaro Roppo-yaki
Filled to the brim with bean paste inside a perfectly toasted crust. This "Roppo-yaki" is crafted by Sentaro, a long-established Kyoto confectionery. Founded in 1886, Sentaro has been sharing the flavors of Kyoto for generations, primarily through department store food halls. As the name suggests, its characteristic feature is its dice-like shape with six sides baked to a golden brown. Smooth bean paste is wrapped in a dough made of flour, egg, and sugar, then finished to a fragrant perfection. The contrast between the toasted crust and the moist bean paste inside provides a very satisfying texture. It offers a nostalgic and comforting flavor. This is a quintessential Kyoto baked sweet, perfect with tea—unpretentious yet substantial, truly reflecting its heritage as an established shop.
