Kagetsudo Hachimantai no Juhyo (Frost-covered Trees of Hachimantai)

This confection captures the winter scenery of Hachimantai. It is crafted by Kagetsudo, a long-established pastry shop in Morioka. In the famous Hachimantai mountains of Iwate, trees become densely covered with fine ice during winter, creating a shimmering white phenomenon known as "Juhyo" (frost-covered trees). This sweet was named after that mystical landscape. A soft, fluffy cookie sandwiches smooth fresh marshmallow, all gently enveloped in chocolate. With a single bite, the airy and melting texture evokes the refreshing chill of winter. For over half a decade, it has been loved as a signature confection of Morioka. You can enjoy various flavors, including white chocolate, milk chocolate, and matcha. It is a classic Morioka souvenir to be enjoyed while imagining the beauty of the frost-covered trees of Hachimantai.
