Baikakudo

3.5

This longstanding Japanese confectionary shop opened in 1909. Operating out of an elegant building exuding a sense of history, the shop has been making confections by hand for over a century. The Tamba-Sasayama area is surrounded by abundant natural beauty and is blessed with black soybeans, chestnuts, rice, and other ingredients for making confections. The shop's Tamba Kuro Natto are made with slow cooked Tamba black soybeans, said to be the best in Japan in terms of both flavor and size; these exquisite treats were the first amanatto-type confection to be made with Tamba black soybeans and have a light flavor and tender texture. The shop's Sasayama Tarts are particularly popular and consist of a pie made with almond powder, butter, and eggs stuffed with plump cooked black soybeans before being baked. The tarts come in around 10 delightful flavors, including chestnut, matcha green tea, and strawberry.

栗最中をいただきました

Reviewed : 2018.03.15

篠山の中心部からはちょっと外れた場所ですが、店内には丹波焼が飾ってあったりして、けっこうきちんとした店構えの和菓子屋さん。元々は最中のお店だということで、栗最中をいただきました。栗の欠片がいくつか入って、なるほど深みのある味わいです。
丹波黒納豆をお菓子にしたお店です

河原町交差点から北の古い民家が残る街の一角にあります。このお店の先代が丹波黒大豆を「丹波黒納豆」としてお菓子に仕上げたとか。黒豆本来の自然な甘みを残した甘納豆は、ついつい手が伸びて、やめられない逸品です。
