Exon Pie
Beneath the crisp, crumbling pie crust, white bean paste infused with the fragrant aroma of walnuts is revealed. The richness of butter and the elegant sweetness of the bean paste intertwine—Exon Pie is another flagship product of Sanmangoku. Released in 1960 (Showa 35), it is a representative item of the Koriyama-based confectionery maker Sanmangoku, standing alongside their famous Mamadooru. The name 'Exon' is derived from a French word meaning 'shield,' and true to its name, it possesses a unique shape reminiscent of a shield. The crispy crust, kneaded with plenty of butter, is packed with carefully cooked white bean paste containing walnuts. Neither a traditional manju nor a simple pie—it is a famous Fukushima confection that wanders the space between Japanese and Western styles.
