Hyakupa no Oban
A famous confection born in Uwajima in 1957 to commemorate the film adaptation of the novel 'Oban' by author Bunroku Shishi. It was created through the initiative of the mayor and others at the time, triggered by the fact that this novel, based on Bunroku Shishi's own experiences, was filmed within the city. A fluffy castella sponge made with plenty of eggs gently sandwiches yuzu-scented bean paste, topped with 'soboro' (crumbles) handmade from Yamato potatoes grown in Tanba Sasayama. At Onomugi Hyakupa, they maintain the tradition of finishing this soboro by grating it and letting it rest for two days. This item offers a delightful contrast between the crunchy texture of the soboro and the moist, soft sponge. Today, several confectionery shops in Uwajima continue to create their own versions of 'Oban'.

Onogami Kashipo Oban
The signature confection of Onogami Kashipo, a long-established shop with an 80-year history located in the Kisaiya Road shopping arcade in Uwajima. Named after the novel 'Oban' by Shishibunroku, this sweet features yuzu bean paste sandwiched between castella sponge cake and topped with mountain yam (yamaimo) crumble. The combination of the crunchy texture of the topping and the refreshing aroma of the yuzu inside is exquisite. At the shop front, you can witness the sight of freshly baked treats being cooled.
