Aoyagi Sohonke's classic Japanese confectionery "Frog Manju" is further arranged in the style of "Maritozzo", a sweet of Italian origin, "Kerotozzo".

While " Mamatozzo" was already introduced for Mother's Day in May, this "Kerotozzo" is for Father's Day. The design is designed to evoke a bit of a laugh, and the filling is a thin dough filled with red bean paste and topped with cream mixed with cream and cream cheese. Lemon juice has been added to make it moist and not too sweet, a sweet that is said to be the essence of Japanese and Western sweets.

It is sold at the Osu Honten, KITTE Nagoya, Moriyama directly managed store, and Asakusa store. At the official online store, a set of 6 pieces is available, and you can also choose an assortment with "Kerotuzzo Cream Cheese & Lemon S" and "Kerotuzzo Rum Raisin & Walnut".
