Kiyoken's autumn-only product "Yokohama Mooncake Roasted Sweet Potato" is a traditional Chinese confectionery that contains sweet potato paste bean paste. It tastes like sweet potatoes.

Kiyoken is famous for shumai, but in fact, mooncakes are also quite good. The bean paste with different tastes is stuffed and baked according to the season.


Yokohama moon cake roasted sweet potato is 160 yen (tax included) per piece. There is a beautiful pattern on the surface. At first glance, it looks like a bite size, but it's a moon cake, so it's heavy. I feel like I can cut it into small pieces and share it with someone.


When I grab it, the white bean-based bean paste underneath the glossy and firm skin is not so sticky, but it has a slightly sticky texture. The mixed sweet potatoes are well crushed and smooth, but there is also a diced potato with skin, which is interesting as an accent to the tongue and teeth.


Also, although it has a fairly strong sweetness, the aftertaste is very elegant. With sesame paste and fruit paste mooncakes, you'll want a strong tea when you eat it, but you can enjoy it with a light tea.

People who like sweet potato pies, which are Western confectionery, may also like it. The sale period is until the end of November.
