會津路菓子處 小林開花堂
◆Kaika Manju
Manju with moist brown sugar dough and mildly sweet, smooth red bean paste.
In the early Meiji era, when the wave of “civilization and enlightenment” was in full swing, it reached Aizu as well. At that time, instead of eating azuki with mochi and rice flour as before, manju were made using brown sugar and wheat flour, and they gained a reputation as “civilization and enlightenment manju.” Since then, as Kaika Manju, they have continued to be loved by many people as a local confection.
◆Aizu Jigen Cheese Manju
Manju stamped with the branding mark of Aizumisato Town’s mascot, Aizu Jigen.
Enjoy the harmony of the chewy dough and cream cheese.

白虎堂
◆あいづじょっこ
・Light, crisp almond cookies that bring to mind the adorable Aizu jokko (girls).
◆万葉集 会津嶺の歌
・Japanese-style cookies with the aroma of Western liquor. Their deep flavor evokes the ancient days of the Manyo era.
◆獅子太鼓
・Apple candy sandwiched in soft castella. The sweet-tart apple pairs beautifully with the light sweetness of the castella.
Now in its fourth generation, Byakkodo was founded in the 41st year of Meiji by Kiyoshi Saito. It began with the sale of candy made from glutinous rice and sprouted barley malt. Even today, the candy boxes used at that time are still carefully used at Byakkodo's confectionery factory.
As a confectioner on the Aizu road, we believe that continuing to use these boxes is a way to carry on the founder's passion for making sweets.

蕎麦や 菅井百貨店
After opening the Sugai Newspaper Shop in 1909 (Meiji 42), "we wanted to make use of this shop and do work that would delight the local community", so in the first year of Reiwa we began soba noodle production. Then from March of Reiwa 4 we started a soba dining business.
Just as the previous generation connected with local residents by handling a variety of goods, we now aim, through soba, to build a shop that keeps us connected with the community in a "modest and long‑lasting" way.
Thank you for your support.
◆Fried soba
Fresh soba noodles are deep‑fried in oil and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper—this is our "fried soba."
Crispy and easy to eat, people say "once you try it, you can’t stop,"
and it has been well received by women.
Perfect as a light snack or an accompaniment to drinks.
1 bag ¥300 (tax included)

Box of 5 Box of 8 Box of 10
・Christian daimyō Gamo Ujisato and
Adachi Jinjūrō, a wealthy merchant of Nagasaki who single-handedly handled trade in Aizu ginseng, brought Nanban (Western) culture to the mountainous region of Aizu.
Born at the intersection of these two currents is “会津葵,” a castella filled with a secret sweet bean paste.

Box of 8 Box of 12
・A representative Aizu gyuhi confection inspired by the Stone Ox legend of Yanaizu Fukuman Kokuzoson.
An original creation made with premium whole buckwheat, wasanbon sugar, and Dainagon azuki beans,
its fine, silky texture evokes the image of snowy Aizu.
◆小法師(こぼうし)
・The okiagari-koboshi displayed at the Tokaichi New Year market is one of Aizu’s three auspicious symbols: people buy one more than the number of family members
and offer it at the household Shinto altar. The auspicious Koboshi confection uses azuki bean paste and white-azuki egg-yolk paste,
wrapped in a stone coat to express the atmosphere of snow.
Aizu culture includes an Aizu tea ceremony that seeks beauty and a mysterious Nanban culture.
Against this cultural backdrop, Confectioner Aizu Aoi, which descends from Nijiyajirōzaemon, the tea-house wholesaler serving the Aizu domain, creates distinctive original sweets.
Each carefully finished sweet has its own story, which we deliver to our customers with deep affection and responsibility.
