Tsugaru Ame (Tsugaru Candy)
There is a traditional sweet that has supported the dining tables of Aomori for over 160 years. This is 'Tsugaru Ame,' continuously crafted by Kami-boshi Takeuchi Candy Factory, founded in the 5th year of the Ansei era. Using a method unchanged since the Edo period, starch from sweet potatoes is saccharified with barley malt and slowly boiled in a cauldron—without using any sugar or additives. Its characteristic is the gentle, natural sweetness produced by the ingredients themselves. This malt syrup is deeply rooted in the lives of Aomori people, having once been prized as a precious source of nourishment. It is recognizable by its tin decorated with Nebuta art. There are many ways to enjoy it, such as dissolving it in hot water or using it in cooking. Please enjoy this item filled with the history of Aomori.
