Custard Cake Inochi (Sakura)

Set in Hirosaki, the NHK Taiga drama 'Inochi' was broadcast in 1986. To commemorate its broadcast, Ragnoo Sasaki, a confectionery manufacturer in Hirosaki, created the long-selling custard cake 'Inochi'. This is a special treat available only in spring, featuring a sakura flavor. Sakura-flavored custard cream is wrapped in an adorable, pink-colored, fluffy steamed cake. With just one bite, the soft sponge and meltingly smooth cream blend together gently. This spring-like item is perfect for the cherry blossom season in Hirosaki, which is famous as a top spot for flower viewing. It is a delightful flavor that brings a smile to your face, making it an excellent souvenir for hanami (cherry blossom viewing).
