Egg Picked Up on the Moon
A soft, single bite; true to its name, this is a round and gentle sweet that feels as if it were picked up from the moon. It is produced by Asahi Seika in Yanai City. Since its release in 1986, it has continued to be loved as a representative confection of Yamaguchi. The castella sponge, double-steamed using famous spring water from the foot of Mount Kotoishi, is filled with smooth custard cream made from local milk and chopped chestnuts. Interestingly, this sweet was born from an effort to utilize large steamers originally introduced for making uirō (sweet rice cake). It has remained the company's most popular item since its launch and has even received the Prime Minister's Award. With its moist, fluffy sponge and melting cream, it is a treat that brings a smile to your face, whether served with tea or given as a souvenir.
