Usukawa Manju Gihei Kishimoto Main Store

Japanese Confectionery
This Japanese confectionery store is located a little to the southwest along National Route 42, after exiting JR Kushimoto Station. The long-established store was founded in 1893, and in a time when manju buns were considered sweets, it pursued the creation of a light, unsweetened bun, which is now a specialty product, Usukawa Manju. Its main characteristic is the special bean paste which is made from scratch to be delicious while also not being too sweet. In addition to Usukawa Manju, the store also has Imoimo and Hamasodachi, as well as Rosetsu Monaka, which have been recognized by Premier Wakayama.

  • うすかわ饅頭
    4.0 Reviewed : 2023.05.03
    国道沿いの本店に寄って、うすかわ饅頭を買いました。店の前の駐車場に2、3台停められます。6個入り。甘くないこし餡で何個でも食べられますが、食べたことがない味ではありません。あっさりしたこし餡です。宿泊した翌日に、朝9時前に店の前を通過した時、開店していたので朝、お土産として買えました。
  • 道の駅の向かいにある和菓子屋

    串本で有名な和菓子屋さんで道の駅の向かいにあるので買いやすい立地。うすかわ饅頭は橋杭岩をイメージしているそうで8時開店なので宿のチェックアウト後に訪れるのにも便利。
  • 日持ちしないことだけが残念

    有名なかりんとまんじゅうを購入。当日と次の日しか日持ちがしないのだけが残念。1つ125円。トースターで2分と書いていたが、3分ぐらいでいいと思います。2分だと一番下があたたまってなかった。でもめっちゃおいしい!日持ちしなくていいなら是非!
