Karinto "Tachibana"-How about a souvenir of Ginza? ―

1. June 24, 2011 08:30

In the "3 good friends" following the 117th row of "Tsurezure Grass", "7 good friends", the first "doctor (kusushi), wisdom friend" was "Mokururu Tomo" Do you remember?

When I first met this stage in class, I still remember that I was very shocked, saying, "I'm a good friend, so it's a good friend." (I was young)

The origin of "Karinto" is unknown due to various theories such as "Tang confectionery brought by envoy to the Tang Dynasty" and "One of the Nanban confectionery", but it seems that there are many sweets similar to the world. After frying roughly, add honey of "black sugar" or "white sugar", but this is a white sugar type. Two kinds of thick "roll" thin "sada". The shiny glossy karinto wearing a transparent candy-colored clothing is very elegant and crisp and light. I am tempted to want to eat every bag once without worrying about calories. There is also a magazine that introduces "Tokyo's three major karinto". Bags are recommended for home use, and cans are recommended for souvenirs.

In a bag: 300G 800 yen, round cans 1100 yen to 5000 yen, corner cans 1300 yen to 3700 yen
