About Hamster Monaka Matcha An
"Hamster Monaka Matcha An" is a hamster-shaped Monaka, a collaboration product between the long-established Kyoto confectionery "Aoki Koetsudo" and the Kyoto planning company "niji Inc." in Kyoto. It features a refined bean paste made with Uji matcha and a crispy, fragrant Monaka, creating an exquisite harmony. Not only is it visually appealing, but it also focuses on taste.
This time, a new two-piece version has been introduced. It's a perfect choice for those who feel that six pieces are too many. It's also recommended as a new Kyoto souvenir.
Contents of the 2-piece set
- 【Monaka Shell】×2
- 【Matcha Bean Paste】×2
- 【Matcha Konpeito】ⅹ2
- 【Honey Konpeito】ⅹ2
The hamster's belly is slightly indented, and when you place the included matcha konpeito or honey konpeito, it looks like the hamster is holding nuts. This adorable sight is sure to soothe your heart.
How to Enjoy Hamster Monaka Matcha An
We fill the hamster monaka shell generously with matcha bean paste.
The fact that you can adjust the amount of bean paste to your liking because you fill it yourself is also a great point.
Once the filling is in, cover it with a Monaka wafer and give it a piece of the accompanying rock candy.
Hamster Monaka is complete!
The combination of the filling packed with the flavor of Uji matcha and the crispy Monaka is an irresistible item for matcha lovers.
