Fuji-Taro Candy

Jan 5, 2014

Today, I went to Fujinomiya city near Mt.Fuji. And I found this cute candy.

This candy is a kind of candy called 'Kintaroame'. Kintaroame is a bar of candy that is produced using a special technique. It is a cylindrical candy made so that Kintaro's face appears wherever it is sliced. As for this, Mt. Fuji was made in place of Kintaro.
You can buy it at Fujinomiya-Omiya-yokocho.
