Fujisawa, a long-established confectionery shop with a history of about 100 years, is famous for its Ezo Warabi Mochi✨ It has won numerous awards. Ezo Warabi Mochi is a chewy mochi with walnuts inside and not too sweet, with a nice texture of yellow powder. The store has a nostalgic Showa era atmosphere, which is nice♪ #Toyohira Gourmet #Fujisawa confectionery #Ezo Warabi Mochi #Japanese sweets #Destination is Hokkaido @poroco_sweets @hokkaidogourmet_ @hokkaido_meguree @hokkaido_____select #Sweets near Sapporo.

I received a stamp at "Kitanorikaze no Eki Tobetsu". I arrived early so most of the tenant shops were not open yet. I was planning to eat something, but since nothing was open, I bought this bread instead! I enjoyed it with coffee at the eat-in corner. The "Sausage Bread" (184 yen) had a slightly spicy sausage inside. The bread was moist and had a different texture, sticking slightly to the teeth. Mayonnaise was spread on top of the bread, but only a little for flavor. I prefer stronger flavors, so I would have been happy if it had ketchup or something else on it. Next time, I would like to visit the store and try buying some sweets as well! Thank you, "Fujisawa"!

The pink shortcake is delicious with a nostalgic feel and a moderate level of sweetness. It has a small amount of sponge cake and a generous amount of cream. The chocolate cake has a good balance of rich chocolate and crunchy nuts, making it very tasty. The cheesecake is a simple and slightly sweet cheesecake with a moist texture that is delicious. The warabi mochi has walnuts in it, and the sweetness is just right, making it tasty.

I came to Sapporo for my grandchild's birthday. Being invited is a special occasion. Eventually, grandchildren will lose interest in their grandparents, so I cherish these moments. I used to be more aggressive in collecting coupons when I visited my daughters in Sapporo, but now I am more relaxed. On Sunday at 10 am, my grandchild's study session began. This was my chance to go to Ario and visit the "Exciting Plaza" to collect coupons. I ended up collecting coupons from 12 stores. I usually write a different introduction for each store, but this time I decided to keep it simple. I always check the store name and see if they have coupons. If they do, I choose the smallest and cheapest item and put it in my basket. I found a store selling bracken rice cakes, but it was not in the system. It turns out it was from Fujisawa Seika in Tobetsu, not Sapporo. The coupon said "Supporting local businesses," but I wonder how far the definition of "local" goes. I opened the coupon and tried it, but I didn't like the texture. I prefer something chewy. It had a jelly-like texture, which I didn't enjoy. It was not my preferred type of bracken rice cake.

On a certain weekday, I stopped by while returning after having lunch in Yahiro, Tobetsu-cho. This shop is a long-established store that competes with traditional Japanese sweets and Western-style sweets. The parking lot is not confirmed. In an area where old-fashioned eateries line up, the shop has a well-organized space with a variety of original Japanese and Western sweets. The menu includes a slightly chubby eclair (150 yen tax included) that is charmingly different from the average ones. The light choux pastry and crispy chocolate coating are well-balanced in sweetness and oil content, with a surprisingly light and fluffy yellowish cream inside. I was surprised by the subtle taste and low oil content, wondering if it contained custard. I finished it without confirmation. The ezowarabimochi (180 yen tax included) seemed to be the main attraction, so I chose the smallest one this time. It was a bite-sized warabi mochi covered in soybean flour, with crushed walnuts inside, making it a good tea snack. The kuzumizore plum jelly (120 yen tax included) looked like a pink, transparent jelly, but when I ate it, I was surprised to find a sticky substance with grains of kudzu and red bean paste in the middle. It was a novel Japanese sweet that was good once I got used to it. The crescent moon manju with red bean paste (350 yen tax included) also seemed to be a specialty of the shop, so I purchased it. It looked like a large Chinese steamed bun, but it was actually a crescent moon manju. When I took a bite, I noticed that there was a lot of red bean paste inside the dorayaki-like dough, satisfying those who love red bean paste. Eating innovative sweets from a long-established shop can feel like finding a treasure. Thank you for the meal.

During my first visit in July 2018 to the Michi-no-Eki (roadside station) in Tobetsu, I went shopping. As Tobetsu is the birthplace of Royce Confect, the Michi-no-Eki had a lot of Royce bread, but they also had a variety of other local products. Surprisingly, there was a corner dedicated to Ikkyu Dafukudo, a company originating from Asahikawa. It was there that I found this bread. It had a fluffy bread dough with a castella-like texture and red bean paste inside. It reminded me of a style of bread I had eaten in the past. It was an interesting bread that gave the impression of what would happen if a Japanese confectionery shop made bread. Looking at their website, they produce both Japanese and Western-style sweets, creating confections with names rooted in Tobetsu. They even have a confectionery set called "Tobetsu Nisshi," similar to Rokkatei's "Tokachi Nisshi." Despite being a neighboring town to Sapporo, Tobetsu is a town that is not widely known, but it seems they have some locally beloved "famous sweets" after all.

I received a "Sakura" mooncake at a shop in a different station, where they sell a variety of flavors like red bean, white bean, chestnut, sweet green soybean paste, and sakura, among others. I chose the sakura flavor, which is perfect for this season. The sakura bean paste has a good balance of saltiness and sweetness. The ratio of skin to bean paste is also great. It was delicious! I regret not buying a regular one to enjoy with some strong green tea at home, but I don't have any tea leaves at home. I would like to try other flavors next time. Highly recommended!

This is a confectionery shop located in the town of Ishikari Tobetsu. It has a nostalgic taste that I have been enjoying since I was a child. The establishment dates back to April 8, 1924, making it a long-standing shop. I often saw their traditional Japanese sweets offered on the family altar. The "Ishikari Hamanasu" has a moist texture with a subtle fragrance of Hamanasu flower, and it is filled with yellow bean paste. I loved it as a child. The "Ezo Warabi Mochi" was a delicious treat that left me impressed in my childhood. If I ever have a reason to visit this place, I will definitely buy it. It has a large walnut inside, and the mochi has a savory soy sauce flavor. The sweet and salty taste is delightful. The mochi is chewy, soft, and smooth, with plenty of kinako powder on top. The Chinese steamed bun here is exceptional. It is shaped like a moon or a banana, similar to a dorayaki. It is quite large, about 8 centimeters in size, and heavy. The dough is chewy and fluffy, and the sweet red bean paste inside is perfectly balanced with a hint of salt. It doesn't feel heavy even though it's big. I shared a large Chinese steamed bun with my family in the car by cutting it into quarters, and it felt like eating 3 or 4 regular dorayaki. I wish I had taken a picture! I regret not doing so now! If you can't eat a large Chinese steamed bun, don't worry, they also have regular-sized ones. If you ever have a reason to visit this place, be sure to try it out. The giant Chinese steamed bun can also make a fun souvenir idea.

I came looking for something that is kind to the body! Since I couldn't find a parking lot, I just parked in front of the store for now. Of course, my target was the beloved warabi mochi!! There was a wide variety of cakes in addition to traditional Japanese sweets, and I was curious about the sweets inside the apple and peach containers. This time, I bought Ezo warabi mochi and soy milk cookies (matcha). The soy milk cookies also come in plain, sesame, and ginger flavors. They also sell bread! From sliced bread to sweet bread, they have a variety. They also have assorted Japanese sweets, perfect for souvenirs! Now, the warabi mochi has a refined sweetness of kinako, and the texture of the walnuts inside the mochi adds a nice touch! The soy milk matcha cookies are quite moist and crumbly! The matcha flavor is great. There is no crispy cookie-like texture. There is also no strong soy milk taste, so even those who don't like soy milk may enjoy it! If I have the chance to visit nearby again, I would definitely want to stop by!

This is a gift I received. I intended to eat it alone, but my daughter slyly sat next to me. When I quietly opened the lid, there was a layer of soybean flour on the surface, so I had to dig in with a skewer. There were 10 pieces inside. When I finally tasted it, my daughter also opened her mouth at the same time. To avoid a fight, I divided it neatly into two. It was a good thing it was an even number. The warabi mochi had a texture that wasn't too chewy, and I loved the walnuts in it. It was delicious, and I couldn't stop myself from reaching for more. We have a rule in our house to hold our breath when putting the soybean flour in our mouths to avoid scattering it around. It's 735kcal for this amount. Even though it's slightly sweet and soft, I realized after eating that it's quite hard to burn off that many calories. But I'll just pretend that the soybean flour is good for my body and forget about the numbers. Thank you for the meal.

I purchased it at a roadside station. The popular Chinese steamed buns are big and heavy! I chose the traditional sweet red bean paste, with a hint of sweetness. The red bean paste is a bit unusual? Hmm? Maybe the bitterness hasn't been removed. I won't be buying it again. On the other hand, the warabi mochi is delicious. Wait, it's not warabi mochi... It's like a walnut yokan! Served with kinako powder. Delicious! As a bonus, there is the abandoned Ishikari-Kanazawa Station.

I saw Ezo Warabi Mochi at a place where Hokkaido sweets are lined up. It says Hokkaido specialty, I didn't know that. The ingredients are mochi rice, sugar, soybean flour, walnuts, oligosaccharide, malt sugar, warabi powder, sesame seeds, soy sauce, and it feels simple and likable. It is a snack made by a confectionery in Tobetsu, using Tobetsu-grown black Senkoshi for the soybean flour. The texture is not the usual, it's a bit delicate, and you might think "hmm", but it's delicious with just the taste of the ingredients.

When it gets hot, the symptoms worsen, it is a designated rare disease by the government. Unfortunately, there is still no medication that suits me. This review will be based on my condition and consultation. Likes and comments may be delayed, so thank you in advance. [September 2019] Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza is an antenna shop for Hokkaido. It is operated by the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association. The first store is located in the Tokyo Kotsu Kaikan in Yurakucho, Tokyo. While there are regular items, they also hold sales events for Hokkaido's local specialties on a weekly basis. The Tokyo store was initially operated by the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association. As operations became busier, they outsourced the operation to Marui Imai Department Store. With the integration of Marui Imai and Mitsukoshi Sapporo, the out-of-town stores are now operated by Hokkaido Marui Mitsukoshi. The Sapporo store is still operated by the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association. Various organizations such as general companies, chambers of commerce, and municipalities like Sapporo and Hakodate can register with the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association. Through these channels, they sell products from Hokkaido, ranging from sweets and seafood to various crafts, not limited to food products. They can sell specialties from various regions in Hokkaido. If a company wants to participate in a Hokkaido product exhibition outside of Hokkaido, it is easier to do so by joining the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association. Some department stores may require going through the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association to participate. The Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association holds a large trade fair at a hotel around June every year. Member companies can set up booths at this event. This trade fair is well-known nationwide, with store managers and buyers from various department stores attending. In recent years, major supermarkets and influential companies from local areas also participate. Instead of traveling to each store across the country from Hokkaido, it is a very helpful trade fair where they can come to you. After the last day of the trade fair, there is a standing party hosted by the Governor of Hokkaido. (Personally, I don't recall the governor attending every year, I think I only saw the governor's representative.) This standing party also serves as a direct sales opportunity between top officials without intermediaries. There is no membership fee for joining the Hokkaido Trade and Industry Promotion Association, with an annual fee of 10,000 yen per unit for three or more units. It is convenient and inexpensive for companies wishing to participate in product exhibitions. At least you can rotate participating in Dosanko Plaza. I visited the sweets section at Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza Sapporo store. I noticed the "Ezo Warabi Mochi" from Fujisawa Seika in Toyohira-cho, Hokkaido. Ezo Warabi Mochi is a mochi with walnuts, almost like "Kurumi Yubeshi." It looks like Warabi Mochi at first glance, but it is made with mochi rice and walnuts with soy sauce flavor, similar to the taste of "Kurumi Yubeshi" common in Eastern Japan. It has a hint of warabi powder and is topped with kinako powder, using locally-produced "Kuri Senko Kinako" from Toyohira. It is a traditional Japanese confectionery that promotes local production and consumption. The Ezo Warabi Mochi shows ingenuity in its unique flavor. It would also be fitting to call it "Toyohira Warabi Mochi." The entry on Tabelog is listed under "Fujisawa Seika." The legal responsibility for the product's overall display is under "Fujisawa Seika." The Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza Sapporo store also displays it as "Fujisawa Seika." Therefore, this review is based on "Fujisawa Seika." Next time, nostalgic.

This is a gift from my followers. Ezo Warabi Mochi from the HP. In the Shinotsugawa area of Ishikari wilderness, warabi ferns grow abundantly, and locals as well as visitors from Sapporo come to forage for wild vegetables on holidays. This confection was created using warabi flour, yellow flour, and walnuts. I had only ever tried warabi mochi once before, from Yanagiya's Kinagoromo, so my image of it was fluffy and soft. But this one has walnuts for a chewy texture, just the right amount of yellow flour, and it's delicious too. It has won the National Confectionery Exposition Grand Prix, and their mascot character Benosuke from Tobetsu Town is also cute. I enjoyed it.

I visited a kitchen pop-up that was only open for two days!! I was curious about the warabi mochi with walnuts, so I stopped by after work on the first day, but it was already sold out. Feeling a bit disappointed, I decided to give it another try on the second day, and I was able to buy it! The Ezo warabi mochi (194 yen) is made with black Chitose sesame powder from Tobetsu. It comes in a pack of 3. It seems like it won some kind of award at the 20th National Confectionery Exhibition. Is Tobenosuke a local character? (laughs) The chewy warabi mochi is delicious, and the nutty aroma and texture of the walnuts are great (*'ω'*). I've recently learned that properly made warabi mochi from a reputable store is really tasty (laughs).
