1. Momiji Manju
This sweet is made of castella dough in the shape of a maple leaf and filled with sweet bean paste, and is a representative souvenir from Hiroshima. The standard filling is strained red bean paste or crushed red bean paste, but recently there are a wide variety of fillings such as cheese cream, chocolate cream, custard cream, and matcha flavor.
2. Yamadaya “Kiriyaka”
Toyouka is made by wrapping azuki bean paste in a dough made from ``mochi flour'' made from glutinous rice and baking it lightly and softly. Its smooth texture and mellow flavor go perfectly with green tea.
3. Nishikido “Raw Maple”
Nama Momiji is a fresh confectionery made from Hiroshima's signature souvenir, Momiji Manju. A moist and elegant manju made with mochi flour and rice flour from Hiroshima Prefecture.
4. Kameya “Kawadori Mochi”
This is Hiroshima's signature confectionery, made with soft gyuhi flour sprinkled with soybean flour and walnuts. A fresh confectionery with a simple and gentle sweetness that spreads in your mouth. The texture of walnuts accents the chewy texture.
5. Kashihara “Original Hassaku Daifuku”
``Hassaku Daifuku'' has become a very popular product in recent years as a new face of Hiroshima's famous confectionery. This is a Japanese confectionery filled with fresh hassaku wrapped in white bean paste inside a rice cake made with mandarin oranges. You can also purchase them inside Hiroshima Station or at souvenir shops.
6. Bakkenmozart “Freshly baked crow barley cookies”

7. Yamato Foods “Remosco”
Lemosco is a new seasoning made with Hiroshima lemon juice and peel from the Seto Inland Sea. Using seaweed salt made from seawater in the Seto Inland Sea, the sourness of the lemon and the spiciness of the green chili pepper are a perfect match. It can also be used in fried foods, stir-fries, pasta and salads.
8. Mishima Foods “Yukari”
Yukari is Mishima Foods' representative long-selling product. A mixed rice base made with fragrant and refreshing red perilla. You can use it not only with rice and rice balls, but also with pasta and wild onions.
9. Kurasaki Kaisan “Oiru & Oister”
This is a popular product that has been featured in various media such as ``Himitsu no Arashi-chan'' (TBS) and ``Law Consultation Office with Lines'' (Nippon Television). This is a masterpiece made from large oysters grown on a farm in Hiroshima Bay, grilled until aromatic, seasoned with soy sauce, and soaked in genuine corn oil.
10. Hiroshima Sake Hara Honten “Horaitsuru”, Kamotsuru Sake Brewery “Kamotsuru”
The sake in Hiroshima is also delicious! The original store is located in Hiroshima city, and was founded in 1805 (Bunka 2nd year), making it a long-established store with a history of over 200 years. ``Horaitsuru'' has a rich aroma and a refreshing taste. Kamotsuru Sake Brewery ``Kamotsuru'' is a well-known brand nationwide, and its Daiginjo sake has a well-balanced gentle aroma, gentle texture, and just the right amount of body. It is a Japanese sake that is synonymous with Hiroshima.
11. CARP Baseball Gallery Carp Goods
When you think of Hiroshima, you think of Carp, and when you think of Carp, you think of Hiroshima. Don't miss out on the Carp goods you'll want even if you're not a Carp girl. We also carry a large selection of player posters, postcards, and original goods exclusive to the store.
12. V-POINT Sanfrecce Hiroshima Goods
Speaking of soccer in Hiroshima, it's Sanfrecce Hiroshima. There are souvenirs that will please everyone from children to adults, such as face towels and uniforms with players' names on them, trading cards and hats. In addition, the ``Aromatic Natural Kake Soy Sauce Sanfrecce Bottle,'' a collaboration product with local soy sauce maker Kawanaka Soy Sauce, is also popular as a new souvenir product.
13. Kumano Brush Select Shop “Makeup brushes, calligraphy brushes, painting brushes”
Approximately 80% of Japanese brushes, including painting brushes, calligraphy brushes, and makeup brushes, are produced in Kumano Town. Craftsmen select the appropriate type of animal hair for the intended use, and each strand is made by hand. For this reason, painting brushes have a different drawing taste, and makeup brushes are famous for their pleasant texture.
14. Hattendo “Cream Bread”
Development period: 3 years. After much trial and error, we arrived at the ultimate cream bread that can be eaten cold. By combining a simple custard cream with genuine cream that has a pleasant texture and is rich in flavor, we have created a light and elegant product. Keep refrigerated.
15. Island Heart “Setoda Lemon Cake”
A super popular product with cumulative sales exceeding 3 million units! Our lemon cake is made with lemons from Setoda, which has the highest production volume in Japan, and the secret to its scent is the special lemon jam kneaded into the dough. By carefully cutting the peel by hand, we bring out the aroma and flavor of the lemon.
