Otakusa

It was Siebold, who loved Nagasaki, who gave the name 'Otakusa' to the hydrangea. This exquisite pastry is shaped like a pie in the likeness of that flower, named after his beloved wife, Otaki. When the physician Siebold arrived in Nagasaki in 1823, he saw his wife's name reflected in the beautiful hydrangeas and named the scientific species 'Otakusa.' Accompanied by this tale of love, Kaho Karakusa shapes these pies into the form of hydrangea petals. They feature a light, crispy texture with a rich aroma of butter. This is a classic Nagasaki baked sweet, baked as delicately as flower petals. Please enjoy it along with the romantic story embedded within a single hydrangea bloom.
