Man'eido Ganso Tsuruko Manju

"Ganso Tsuruko Manju" is a traditional confection that Man'eido has continued to make for over 100 years, since its founding in 1921 on the approach to Kushiki Hachiman Shrine in Hachinohe. It is an oval-shaped baked manju consisting of smooth red bean paste wrapped in a dough kneaded with brown sugar and locally produced Nanbu wheat flour, then coated in white mochi flour and baked. A stubborn commitment to craftsmanship remains, with every step except the filling process being done by hand. With the deep richness of brown sugar and the simple, moist flavor of the crust, it is a representative confection of Hachinohe that has won the Prime Minister's Award at the National Confectionery Expo. Please enjoy this unchanging taste that has been passed down for a century under the watchful eye of the shrine's cedar groves.
