Sold within the grounds of Nikko Toshogu Shrine
Walking up and down 207 steps
Sweet things that a tired body desires

I would buy it if it was in a location like this.
Isn’t there??

Salt Daifuku Tsubuan@220
Mugwort Daifuku Tsubuan @220

I brought mugwort home

It is said that no preservative additives are used.
Frozen items are thawed and sold

It was a little cold, so the daifuku was cold.
The taste is salty and delicious.

I got mugwort when I got home and it was delicious at room temperature.
The mochi is soft and has a nice mugwort scent.
I recommend it

If it's cold locally, use your hands to warm it up a little.
It seems better to warm it up

It was a feast

I saw Daifuku mentioned in the reviews of Toshogu Shrine, so I looked for it and found a shop opposite the ticket office. I ate the daifuku the night I got home, thinking it would be hard the next day. I was surprised when I ate it, and it was my first time to eat such soft and fluffy rice cake. I bought matcha and salted bean paste, and the sweetness is quite modest, but it is not lacking in sweetness and is elegant. If you like Daifuku, try one at the store, then buy a variety of different kinds and go home.I don't think you'll regret it. They are so soft that you have to be careful when taking them home, but they also sell boxed sets. The children also ate bamboo charcoal and zunda. They have a homepage, so it looks like you can buy it from there. It seems like they don't use preservatives or additives, but one thing I'm curious about is that they are shipped frozen, so I thought the Toshogu store also sells them thawed. The store says it will last for about 3 days after you buy it. If it's this soft, you can probably eat it even after 3 days.

It was a daifuku with no additives and a gentle sweetness. You can purchase one for 220 yen. There are several flavors available, and they seem to last for about two days.

It's located just outside Nikko Toshogu Shrine, so I bought it at a good time.
There was only matcha and sesame (220 yen each), and when I bought the sesame and ate it on the chair next to me, it was sweet and gave me strength after walking.
