Fresh cheese with coconut in the manju dough.

“Cheese Manju” have already become a standard souvenir of Miyazaki. This time, we would like to introduce the cheese buns from “Okashi-no-Maeda”.

Cheese Manju are filled with fresh cheese, which is unique to Miyazaki, and the ones from “Okashi-no-Maeda” are characterized by the coconut in the manju skin, which gives them a cookie-like texture.

The texture is browned and crispy on the outside. It looks like a puffy cookie.

The manju crust has a biscuity feel with coconut and the fresh cheese is a perfect balance of the two.

The cheese is slightly salty but slightly sweet and creamy. It is surprising that cheese goes so well as manju bean paste.
