Sakaeya Sukunokame

A confection that evokes a sense of history, shaped like pottery excavated from an Iizuka ruin. Sukunokame is a Japanese-style baked sweet made by Sakaeya in Iizuka City. Its name and shape are derived from the 'Suku-style pottery' unearthed from local Yayoi period ruins. A long-selling favorite since its birth in 1957, it offers a unique texture with homemade cooked bean paste and mochi sandwiched in monaka wafers. The variety of available fillings, including adzuki bean, Yame Hoshino tea, and Japanese chestnut, is also a major attraction. Chosen as a souvenir or for celebratory gifts, this item breathes the history of Iizuka. The chewy texture and carefully crafted bean paste pair perfectly with the fragrant monaka. It is a deeply flavorful confection to be enjoyed while feeling the romance of ancient times.
