Tsutaya Kasudose
Its history spans approximately 400 years. This is a secret Nanban (Western-influenced) confection passed down in Hirado. Tsutaya of Hirado, established in the 2nd year of Bunki (1502), has protected this Kasudose for generations. A lightly sweetened Castella is left to rest overnight, each piece is individually coated with egg yolk by hand, and then dipped in boiling syrup to be covered in sugar. During the Edo period, it was a luxury item reserved only for a limited number of people as the official confection of the Matsuura clan, the lords of the Hirado Domain. The outside is crunchy, while the inside is moist and rich. With one bite, you can sense the luxury of its painstaking production. It is truly an exquisite masterpiece that the historic port town of Hirado takes pride in. Please be sure to taste it when you visit Hirado.
