I made Japanese traditional candy Wagashi Tsubaki-mochi.

Tsubaki means Camellia in Japanese, and Tsubaki-mochi is the oldest sweets in Japan and it's said to be the origin of Japanese sweets Wagashi.

This candy consists of domyojiko(kind of sticky rice), red sweet bean paste"anko" inside, and it is sandwiched between two camellia leaves.

Tsubaki-mochi has been around since the Heian period(794 to 1185) and is also described in the famous "The Tale of Genji" in Japanese literature.

Although the ingredients are different from those at the time, we can enjoy history through the candy;)

Tsubaki-mochi is sold at Wagashi shop in winter season, if you come to japan in winter someday, please try it!
