Under intense summer heat, even chewing feels like a chore, how about we try some refreshing desserts that slide through the throat! In 2025, wagashi master Emily had a stroke of genius and decided to pair Toukaya's popular-selling products Mizumanju and Mizuyokan together, two different cool and smooth textures creating an amazing spark. Stave off the summer heat with a few sets of these at home!
Mizu manju みずまんじゅう
Originated from crystal buns in China, clear and bright like crystal, a chilled dessert best suited for summer snacking.
Kudzu (Japanese arrowroot) is a type of medicinal herb described in "Bencao Gangmu" (Compendium of Materia Medica, Ming Dynasty) and has a high nutritional value. In Japan, starch is extracted to make kudzu powder, the most famous of which is from Yoshino, Nara. It is widely used in Japanese sweets in the summer. Wagashi made from kudzu powder are also known as "kudzu manju'' and "daffodil manju". It is difficult to distinguish them in terms of definition, so oval-shaped ones are collectively called mizumanju. They have a translucent appearance and a soft, chewy texture different from the general yokan.
Mizu yokan 水ようかん
Yokan originated in China, brought back to Japan by diplomatic envoys visiting the Tang Dynasty courts. They modified the Tang Dynasty mutton jelly into vegetarian red bean yokan. With the increased practice of tea ceremony, it became an important tea ceremony accompaniment. In comparison with the yokan, mizuyokan has a higher water content and lower sugar level, making it more refreshing than yokan but also less able to keep for long. In the olden days. mizuyokan could only be made in winter. Now with the progress of refrigeration technology, it has become a well-loved summer wagashi.
