Fujiya Onaojika

A traditional Tokushima 'sao-gashi' (stick confectionery) that has continued since the Meiji era, reminiscent of a fawn's back. Onaojika is a famous confection produced by Fujiya, founded in 1870, since the mid-Meiji period. The steamed dough, made by combining rare tsukune-imo (yam) with premium flour and eggs, is moist and fine-textured. Red bean grains are scattered like the spotted pattern on a fawn's back, while the vibrant green of matcha beautifully accents the top. Due to its elegance, it has long been valued as a gift. Its charm lies in its adorable appearance and subtle, refined sweetness. This is a prestigious Japanese sweet representing Tokushima, polished over many years. It continues to be a favored choice for celebrations and as a souvenir for important occasions.

    A steamed confection created by the third generation of Fujiya, founded in 1870, and a Kyoto confectionery artisan. The name comes from the fact that the cross-section of mountain yam, glutinous rice, and adzuki beans resembles the spots on a fawn. It is a masterpiece that has been preserved through the post-war reconstruction period.
