I had frozen strawberries with condensed milk and strawberry daifuku with white bean paste and red bean paste. The frozen strawberries were sweet and sour, with the condensed milk adding a creamy touch. The strawberry daifuku with red bean paste had a hint of saltiness that complemented the sweetness of the strawberry and red bean paste. The white bean paste didn't have much saltiness, but it blended well with the strawberry. Both were delicious in their own way. Thank you for the meal.

When passing through Urakawa, I stopped by a strawberry shop that I had been curious about for a while. Although I had lunch first, I was happy to find that they still had the strawberry daifuku I was looking for. It seems that you can also make reservations in advance. On this day, they had strawberry daifuku with red bean paste inside for 250 yen each, and I bought three. They also had strawberry sandwich with fresh cream for 350 yen, which is usually only sold on weekends, but they had it on a weekday too. I borrowed a knife and plate from a friend and took photos of the inside. The strawberries had a sweet and sour taste typical of summer strawberries, which paired perfectly with the sweetness of the red bean paste. Since they were wrapped in mochi, they remained soft even after some time. This deliciousness is definitely worth the popularity. If you want to try it for sure, I recommend making a reservation. I bought two strawberry daifuku and a strawberry sandwich with fresh cream as souvenirs for my friend, so I only have a group photo to share. Urakawa is said to be the largest producer of summer strawberries in Japan, but there are few places in town where you can eat them. The owner used to work in a different industry but switched to the strawberry wholesale business. They opened the shop with the idea of showing that even though winter strawberries can be sour, with the right processing, they can be delicious. The shop aims to provide locals with the opportunity to taste the deliciousness of the region's specialty products. Thank you for the meal.

The strawberry daifuku I wanted was sold out, so I only got the strawberry smoothie!
