Signature Dishes
Nine-layer cake
The top layer has a light brown-sugar aroma and a springy texture; the bottom is noticeably savory and soft and sticky. The sweet and savory notes alternate, and the sweetness may run high.
Taro cake
The fried shallots are savory and toasty-crisp, with a generous portion, pairing well with the mild cake; the taro flavor may also be subtle.
Water rice cake
The fried shallots are richly fragrant and crisp, with moderate saltiness; the cake is firm rather than soft and mushy.
Savory rice cake
Made with substantial ingredients; it has previously been sold in vacuum packaging.
Mugwort cake
The mugwort aroma is pronounced yet fresh.
