Taikoh-han

Friendly milk manju that can only be found in Osaka

The “Taikohan” made by “Chidoriya Soke” in Osaka is a milk manju sold only in Osaka. The product seems to be named after Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who was known as “Taikoh”.

The package depicts Osaka Castle.

It is a gourd-shaped manju with the surface baked to a golden brown. The overall texture is like a moist milk manju.

The inside seems to be a cross between milk bean paste and sweet potato bean paste, a blend of the two.

It has a creamy taste like sweet potato with a touch of milk. It is known that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was once called “Taikoh-han” and was popular among the people, so the naming of this confectionary is something that can only be found in Osaka. The taste was very familiar.
