Okashi no Stella Tsuru Manju

An adorable crane-shaped manju (steamed bun) inspired by Izumi City, Japan's largest wintering site for cranes. This is a unique specialty of Izumi, crafted by Okashi no Stella. From around October to March each year, over 10,000 Hooded Cranes and Red-crowned Cranes migrate to Izumi City. It is rare in the world for such a large number of cranes to winter so close to human settlements, and the Izumi Plain has been protected through local conservation efforts spanning over half a decade. This heartfelt sweet symbolizes that crane village. Featuring a fluffy skin filled with plenty of gently sweet bean paste, please enjoy the essence of Izumi's winter tradition in this lovely confectionery form. It is perfect as a travel souvenir or a gift.
