Jumonjiya Shijimi Manju

The 'Shijimi Manju' is a specialty manju from Jumonjiya, born from the desire to create a sweet that can rival the shijimi (freshwater clams) of Lake Jusan. The Jusan Lakes, stretching across Nakadomari Town in Aomori Prefecture, are known as a producer of high-quality Yamato shijimi. Registered as a Geographical Indication, the umami from these lake clams is exceptional. This sweet gently expresses the blessings of that lake within the world of confectionery. Inside the glossy dough, which has shijimi extract kneaded into it, is a soft and fluffy white bean paste. The manju faithfully reproduces even the shape of a clam, making it a fun treat to look at. It is a manju you should enjoy while imagining the scenery along the shores of Lake Jusan.
