Honke Kikuya Kikagasane
A beautifully designed baked confection that resembles many layers of chrysanthemum petals. Honke Kikuya's 'Kikagasane' is an elegant, famous sweet from Nara. Honke Kikuya is one of Nara's oldest confectionery shops, founded in 1585 in Yamatokoriyama. Boasting a history of over 400 years, it is well-known for the 'Oshiro no Kuchi Mochi,' which has ties to Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Kikagasane features a moist dough with a refined bean paste hidden inside. The chrysanthemum design, inspired by the shop's name, gives this Japanese sweet a certain sense of splendor. Its flavor pairs well not only with Japanese tea but also with black tea and coffee. It is a baked treat that allows you to slowly savor the reliable craftsmanship of a historic establishment.
