Handmade in Takayama city, these cherry blossom treats consist of peanuts wrapped in a crunchy dough with salted sakura leaves and a mildly creamy powder kneaded into it. Takayama is called the "Little Kyoto of Hida" for its scenery and old-fashion castles and streets that have been preserved since the Edo period.

Utsuboya is a long-established candy store that was founded in 1890. Hida, located in Gifu, is a land rich in nuts and grains so the main ingredients for traditional Hida candies are soybeans, sesame seeds, and peanuts. Utsuboya’s 30 different kinds of Hida candies are made by following the same process that has been handed down since the company's founding and are loved by all generations.

Suggested uses: Enjoy as is. Pairs well with a cup of Japanese Green & Specialty Teas.
