Unlike seasonal sweets such as summer mango and autumn chestnut, dorayaki can be enjoyed all year round. It's a very familiar Japanese sweet because you can buy it at supermarkets and convenience stores, but this time, I found a little rare and other sweets that are sold only in the cold season.

Hatada's "Doraichi" is a dorayaki that you can enjoy only from October 1st to May 15th of the following year. In the hot season, the exquisite taste of the dough, bean paste, and cream cannot be reproduced, and the sales period is limited because of the idea that "it should not be sold unless it has the best taste."


The deliciousness of Showa's "Anpan with whipped cream" is reproduced with anko and butter cream. Hatada's proud dorayaki dough is sandwiched between bean paste and butter cream that have been carefully cooked over time. Hakuho's salt is used as a secret ingredient in the cream.


The dough has an exquisite softness that complements the azuki beans. It gently melts in your mouth while snuggling up to the bean paste that has a good graininess. It's dorayaki, but it looks a bit like a hot cake.


The role of butter is to add an accent to the simple sweetness of azuki beans. Spreads its deep richness while melting smoothly on the tongue. The saltiness that works a little at the end is also good! It is finished with a sweet and salty aftertaste.


If you can enjoy this deliciousness, you want to enjoy "Doraichi" all year round. However, because the sales period is limited, you may want to enjoy it more thoroughly.
