Kamome no Tamago (All Iwate Prefecture)
Kamome no Tamago (Seagull's Egg) is a confection known nationwide as a signature treat of Iwate, designed to bring a smile to everyone's face. It all began in 1951 when Saito Seika of Ofunato first released it. Born from the desire to create 'a sweet that reflects the seaside town of Ofunato,' it was inspired by the image of a seagull's egg flying over the blue ocean. It features an adorable, rounded egg shape, consisting of a soft yolk-flavored bean paste wrapped gently in castella sponge cake and coated in smooth white chocolate. With its harmony of moist sponge and elegant bean paste, the flavor is beloved across all generations. As a staple Tohoku souvenir, it is a confectionery that Iwate is proud of, continuing to be loved by many for a long time.
