Kokura Nikki
Kokura, the town where Mori Ogai once lived. 'Kokura Nikki' is a famous confection that carries the scent of that literary history in its name. Produced by Tsuruhira, founded in 1923, this sweet pays homage to Ogai, who was stationed in Kokura as a military medical director during the Meiji era and wrote a diary under the same name. Inspired by this, Tsuruhira released this confection in 1970. It is a simple mini Baumkuchen inspired by German confectionery, which later received an Excellence Award for technology at the National Confectionery Expo. As you savor each bite of the moist cake, you can let your thoughts wander to the streets of Kokura as seen through the eyes of the great literary master. This is a representative literary souvenir of Kitakyushu, wrapped in the scent of history and storytelling.
