Wada Kashipo Wakame Manju
A somewhat rare seaweed (wakame) manju, unique to the wakame-producing region of Sanriku. Crafted by Wada Kashipo in Kamaishi City, this unique treat features dough kneaded with powdered locally harvested wakame, gently enveloping a smooth white bean paste. Iwate is a 'wakame kingdom,' boasting the highest production volume of farmed wakame in Japan. Growing amidst the rough waves of Sanriku, the wakame is thick, crunchy, and rich with the aroma of the sea. By capturing that flavor within the dough, a snack with a subtle saltiness has been created that can only be tasted here. A mysterious, addictive flavor where the scent of the ocean peeks through the sweetness. It is a quintessential Iwate souvenir that allows you to feel the blessings of the Sanriku sea.
