Kikuya Bungo Takada Store

Each sweet potato from Oita Prefecture, 'Beniharuka', is carefully washed, steamed with the skin on in a steam kettle, then further baked in a pot to bring out the sweetness. A special sweet bean paste made with butter and egg yolks is wrapped in a separate dough, placed in a mold, and baked slowly to create a 'realistic and more delicious sweet potato dessert'.

A rich pudding made with Jersey milk from Aso Koguni, accented with a slightly bitter caramel sauce. Sandwiched with custard cream in a fluffy pancake-like dorayaki skin.

A dorayaki that is a specialty of Kikuya, made by sandwiching homemade chunky sweet bean paste, made from carefully cooked Hokkaido red beans 'Ogura', with honey-infused fluffy pancake-like dorayaki skin that has been protected since the founding of the store.

A baked confectionery wrapped in pie crust with red bean paste kneaded with crushed walnuts. The 'Bondia' features a buttery aroma, the texture of walnuts, and a rich flavor that is not too sweet. It was created in 1978 to commemorate the sister city relationship between Aviero, Portugal, and Oita. 'Bondia' means 'good morning' or 'have a nice day' in Portuguese.
