Koufuku Manju

Yolk sweet bun with a smiling face mark

“Koufuku Manju” , meaning Happy sweet bun, made by Koufuku Ltd. in Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, is a sweet bun stamped a smiley face on the top.   The confectioner’s signature product is “Koufuku Dango”, a dumpling on a skewer which is often sold at their local events.

This “Koufuku Manju” is filled with yolk bean paste, and it is unique by a smiling expression stamped on the surface of the manju.

Impressed by a warm smile.

The filling seems to be yolk bean paste.

The confectioner’s name is also “Koufuku” and the concept of the manju sounds bringing happiness.  It is a standard manju filled with yolk bean paste, and it is consistently delicious.
