- Shimane Pref. Matsueshi Suetsuguhonmachi 53
- A long-established Japanese confectionery store founded in the Horeki period between 1751 and 1764, and located in Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture. Since the time of Matsudaira Fumai, the seventh lord of the Matsue Domain, Ichirikido has served as confectioner to the feudal domain. Their specialty sweet is himekosode, a so called otomegashi (limited edition sweet) because it was forbidden to make the sweet unless ordered to do so by the lord of Matsue. It is a delicate flavored sweet made from the finest peeled bean jam and specially made wasanbon sugar (fine-grained Japanese sugar). The store also sells many other sweets including the Matsue specialty, wakakusa, and nishikiogura, made with yokan (adzuki-bean jelly) sandwiched between castella sponge.

- Shimane Matsue-shi Nakabaracho 159 Fukudaya
- This Japanese confectionery store was founded in 1913. It is located a five-minute walk from Matsue Shinjiko Onsen Station and sells not only classic Japanese confectionery such as manju buns and dorayaki (pancakes with red bean paste), but also seasonal sweets such as mizuyokan (soft sweet bean jelly) and fruit jelly. Their Yubeshi, a soft gummy kneaded with yuzu citrus, has the refreshing aroma of yuzu and is the signature product of Fukudaya. These traditional confections, which have been handed down since the Edo period (1603-1868), are lavishly made with local yuzu from Shimane Prefecture, making them refined gems. Wakakusa, known as the favorite confectionery of the seventh leader of the Unshu Matsudaira clan, Fumaiko, is a perfect souvenir when visiting Izumo.

訪問先には従業員さんが20名近くおられるので缶に入った30個入りのおせんべいにしました。4種類あり一包づつお洒落な包装紙に包まれているのでバラマキ用に重宝します。

Shimane Areas
What Shimane prefecture lacks in size and population, it makes up for in scenery and ancient mythology. Izumo-taisha, in the middle of the prefecture, is said to be Japan’s oldest Shinto shrine, where stories that delve into the creation of the Japanese race have been passed down over centuries. The 180 Oki Islands, a 40-minute ferry ride north of Sakaiminato, offer an undiscovered paradise well off the beaten track.
