Banpeiyu Sweets

A refreshing citrus aroma rises, and with one bite, an elegant sweetness and a gentle bitterness spread softly. You can enjoy the bounty of this large fruit through these sweets. Banpeiyu is a relative of the pomelo, said to be among the largest in the world; some fruits can exceed 25 cm in diameter and 2 kg in weight. Cultivation began in Yatsushiro City around 1930, and Kumamoto Prefecture now accounts for almost all the harvest. Known as a giant fruit recognized by the Guinness World Records, various sweets such as jelly, marmalade, and candied peel are made using its flesh and thick peel. A product that captures the refreshing aroma of the giant citrus that Yatsushiro is proud of. It is an elegant flavor that is also appreciated as a winter gift.
