Kyoto Candy — Mari (Apple Dama)


Kyoto Candy — Mari (Apple Dama)

For those who love those konpeito (also written kompeito ) traditional Japanese candies, here’s a wonderful treat from Kyoto. These are decorative hard candies wrapped up in a decorative bag and a sticker that states Kyoame (Candy from Kyoto). This purchase is for a bag of round Mari (apple dama) themed candy of a sweet sugary flavor. A great example of dagashi , the traditional candy from Japan during the Showa Period
