Kame Hachiya

Japanese Confectionery
This Japanese confectionery store is located down the road from the entrance of Tomyo-ji Temple, in a residential area of Taiji Town. Their specialty is Tetsumen-mochi. About the origin of this famous rice cake, itis said that a monk once visited this place looking for an inn, while on the pilgrimage to Kumano. He could not find the inn, but an old man of the town, called Kamehachi, let the monk stay at his home, and by way of thanks, the monk taught the old man how to make the special mochi (rice cake). The name of the Tetsumen-mochi is derived from the name the monk gave when asked who he was. It is made by wrapping Azuki beans from Tokachi in a layer of rice flour. It is also sold as a set, and is recommended for souvenirs and gifts.
