Chrysanthemum Princess

Chrysanthemum Princess きくひめ Kikuhime

The most representative Jonamagashi of Toukaya, the princess of the chrysanthemum world

Chrysanthemum-cutting (Hasamikiku) is one of the techniques passed down from ancient times in Japan. It requires great patience and concentration, higher-level colour gradation, and production techniques. After Ms. Emily Wu Huijing returned from studying in Japan, she immediately launched this miniature version of the hasamikiku that shocked the industry, setting off a whirlwind of wagashi in Taiwan. She reduced the chrysanthemum that was originally about the size of two fists to 5cm, and used scissors to cut the petals piece by piece from extremely fine and soft bean paste, allowing it to bloom in the palm of her hand. The graceful and gorgeous appearance carries good blessings and has appeared in many love confessions, proposals and weddings.

Things to note:

• In order to preserve freshness and prevent collision, Toukaya wagashi is stored in -24°C freezer after production, and is shipped by Black Cat Frozen Home Delivery.
• Thaw at room temperature for about 40 minutes before eating.
• Jonamagashi is prone to drying and cracking if exposed to the air for too long. Therefore, it is recommended to keep them in the original transparent packaging box during the thawing process.
• Jonamagashi can be moved to a plate in the frozen state, and then covered with the original transparent lid. Just remove the lid before eating.
