Shiromatsuga Monaka
When you bite into the crisp, light monaka shell, a generous amount of dense bean paste reveals itself. The fragrant aroma of the shell and the deep sweetness of the thoroughly kneaded bean paste harmonize beautifully. Shiromatsuga Monaka Honpo was founded in 1932 as Shiromatsu Kashiten. It is said that the name 'Shiromatsuga Monaka' came from a consultation with the poet Bansui Doi, who suggested 'Shiromatsuga, ni shiro' (Make it 'Shiromatsuga'). The 'ga' is a possessive particle, intended to mean 'Shiromatsu's products.' We take great pride in using glutinous rice grown in our own paddy fields as the primary ingredient for the shell. It is a masterpiece of Japanese confectionery rooted in Sendai.
