Okashinai Cheese Manju

Manju is a traditional Japanese confection made with flour, rice powder, and buckwheat. Instead of the traditional red bean filling, this fluffy manju from Akita Prefecture is stuffed with white bean and cheese, which results in a smooth and light flavor that is perfect to enjoy with a cup of tea. The excited smiling face on the manju is the perfect reflection of how you'll be feeling after taking a bite of this treat!
