Koeido Chofu

A traditional Okayama Japanese sweet, 'Chofu,' crafted by Koeido. It is a simple confection consisting of soft gyuhi (sweet rice paste) rolled in a thinly baked castella-style dough. It is said that the name 'Chofu' comes from its resemblance to 'Chofu,' a hand-woven roll of cloth that was paid as tax to the Imperial Court in ancient times. Born in the Edo period, it is a famous confection that has been loved in Okayama for a long time. The savory dough pairs perfectly with the gentle sweetness of the chewy gyuhi. The bite-sized portions make it easy to eat, and its charm lies in how you can't stop at just one. An elegant sweet enjoyed as a staple of Koeido alongside Kibi-dango. A comforting taste of Okayama that is perfect for accompanying tea.
