Tsuru no Shin no Tamago (Egg of the Crane's Heart)

"Tsuru no Shin no Tamago" is an egg-shaped confection inspired by Izumi City in Kagoshima Prefecture, known as a destination for migratory cranes. Izumi City is Japan's premier crane arrival site, where over 10,000 Hooded Cranes and White-naped Cranes fly in every year to overwinter. In winter, countless cranes descend upon the rice paddies of the Izumi Plain. This sweet was created by adorably shaping it like a crane's egg, inspired by that majestic sight. This manju (steamed bun) is filled with a gently sweet bean paste, offering a soothing flavor. Its round, egg-like shape is lovely and makes for an enjoyable visual treat. Please enjoy this famous confection of the 'City of Cranes,' perfect as a souvenir of your travels to Izumi.
