Hebesu Sweets

Hebesu is a sour citrus fruit originating from Hyuga City. While it is a relative of kabosu and sudachi, its charm lies in its thin skin, abundant juice, and a mellow acidity without any harshness. It is a fruit that has been closely integrated into local life—so much so that there was once a custom of giving a seedling to a daughter when she married. These sweets, such as jelly, cake, and cookies, make full use of the Hebesu. The refreshing aroma and gentle acidity spread vividly through the confectionery, leaving a crisp aftertaste. With a single bite, you experience a sense of coolness, as if a breeze from early summer in Hyuga is passing through. These are citrus sweets unique to Miyazaki, born in Hyuga, making them especially delightful during the hot season.
