“Tsukimaru” with its cute rabbit package, is an omamyu manufactured by Asahi Confectionery in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
The manju is designed to resemble a perfectly round moon, and the outside has the feel of bread dough.
The inner layer is sponge cake dough, and the inside is filled with tsubu-an (sweet bean paste), which also looks like a small bean-jam bun.
The outside is made of a doughy material like baked bread, while the sponge cake dough inside has a strong presence and a good balance of sweet bean paste. It is perfect for a small snack.
